Aleksiah - 24 Live At The Vanguard Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Don't waste your twenties on a dream
Don't waste your time on writing lines, you don't know what they mean
Life can be bitter or sweet
And I keep digging for sugar but I've run into defeat
Don't waste your twenties on a dream
A scream to the void, instead and you'll watch your bank account bleed
Life might find your inner peace, yeah
But baby not for me
Not for me

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been tired
I've been colder than I ever was
I've been cynical and been thinking of giving up
Wired on everything instead of looking up
You know I'm never enough
And I've been trying
I've been saying that I know its tough
Instead of putting in the work I've been on a comedown
Biting my nails like I've bitten my tongue
You know I'm never enough

[Chorus]
Maybe she's a winner
If she'd ever check the score
Life will be better at 24
Maybe she'll be thinner
Louder, unignored
Life will be better at 24
And by then I swear I'll have my shit together
Wherever I may fall
At least I can say I was better at 22 or not all
[Verse 2]
Don't waste your twenties on your knees
Your head's in the sand, a self-aware a pity party
Romanticise if you please, yeah
'Cause I've been digging for sugar and now I'm left to bleed

[Pre-Chorus]
And I've been tired and I've been colder than I ever was
I've been cynical and been thinking of giving up
Wired on everything instead of looking up
You know I'm never enough

[Chorus]
Maybe she's a winner
If she'd ever check the score
Life will be better at 24
Maybe she'll be thinner
Louder, unignored
Life will be better at 24
And by then I swear I'll have my shit together
Wherever I may fall
At least I can say I was better at 22 or not all

[Bridge]
Yeah I've been tired
Yeah I've been feeling like I'll drift away
Kind of thought maybe now I'd know what to say
I know no one hates me but I think its strange
They don't see me that way
'Cause I've been lying and I've been pitiful and hard to take
I know I'm difficult but you chose to stay by my side
I have a feeling that will never change
You know I never say
[Outro]
Maybe she's a winner
If she'd ever check the score
Life will be better at 24
Maybe she'll be thinner
Louder, unignored
Life will be better at 24
And by then I swear I'll have my shit together
Wherever I may fall
At least I can say I was better at 22 or not all
