Lyrics
When I was younger, a couple years back
I knew a boy
Knew how to make everyone around him laugh
Though he'd never known much joy
'Cause when he was a child, he'd been abandoned
And he found it hard to trust
That no one else would leave him stranded
It was all he'd known
Everyone's just looking for purpose
Searching for someone to tell them how much they're worth
Following lights that always burn out in seconds
Maybe when I'm older it'll all make sense
Somewhere along the road close to seventeen
I met a girl
She spent so much time tryin' to be enough
And fighting for approval cause the boy that she liked
Said she had to be thinner
And her mother agreed
So she kept skippin' dinner
And she stuck it out
I hope she made it out
Everyone's just looking for purpose
Searching for someone to tell them how much they're worth
Following lights that always burn out in seconds
Maybe when I'm older it'll all make sense
Maybe when I'm older it'll all make sense
Maybe when I'm older it'll all make sense
Maybe when I'm older it'll all make sense
Everyone's just looking for purpose
Numbers on a screen that tell you how much you're worth
You hit the bottom of the bottle, don't you feel so accomplished?
The money that you stole will burn a hole in your pocket
Another politican makes an empty promise
So the internet gets mad, then forgets all about it
In a month we circle back and realize nothing happened
Twenty years of this, I'm lucky if the world doesn't end
Before I have a chance to screw it up
And learn my lesson
California's burning and the schools are next
I'm reading books to fight the sadness and escape the present
Maybe when I'm older it'll all make sense
Maybe when I'm older
I've known a girl for all of twenty years
She hates growing up
So she started writing to expel all the thoughts
That told her she'd never be enough
People start to listen, even though she has doubts
She's got a hundred thousand questions
But she'll figure it out
Eventually
