[Verse 1]
Just turned eighteen
And I don't really know what that means
I still got the same anxiety
I feel so controlled by society
[Verse 2]
And my friends
They all seem to know what they wanna be
Got their lives planned five years ahead of me
And I don't even know 'bout next week
[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes when I think ahead
It pulls the string around my chest
Too young to know how to live
Too old to be a kid
[Chorus]
I just turned eighteen
And I don't want the world to change me
It doesn't take a lot to break me
'Cause I don't recognisе me lately
I just turned еighteen
Oh, one more year of this world turning
It's just another candle burning
But my reality is hurting
Just turned eighteen
[Verse 3]
I'm off track
Gotta wish that I could go back
And live another day in my past
Calling to my youth
[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes when I think ahead
It pulls the string around my chest
Too young to know how to live
Too old to be a kid
[Chorus]
I just turned eighteen
And I don't want the world to change me
It doesn't take a lot to break me
'Cause I don't recognise me lately
I just turned eighteen
Oh, one more year of this world turning
It's just another candle burning
But my reality is hurting
Just turned eighteen
Just turned eighteen
[Bridge]
Just turned eighteen
And I don't really know what that means
I still got the same anxiety
I feel so controlled by society, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
I just turned eighteen
And I don't want the world to change me
It doesn't take a lot to break me
'Cause I don't recognise me lately (I don't recognise me lately)
I just turned eighteen
Oh, one more year of this world turning
It's just another candle burning
But my reality is hurting
I just turned eighteen (Happy birthday to me)
Just turned eighteen (Happy birthday to me)
[Outro]
Just turned eighteen
