27

[Verse 1] 27 years, 27 years old Only thing I know, the only thing I get told I gotta sell out if I want to get sold Don't want the devil to be taking my soul I write songs that come from the heart I don't give a fuck if they get into the chart, or not Only way I can be, is to say what I see And have no shadow hanging over me [Hook] I don't know where I'm running but I know how to run Cause, running's the thing I've always done I don't know what I'm doing but I know what I've done I'm a hungry heart, I'm a loaded gun [Verse 2] 27 years, 27 years now Only thing I know, I know that I don't know how To please everybody all of the time Cause everybody's always fucking changing their minds A little bit faded, a little bit jaded Don't want to stop, won't be persuaded To write words I can't believe in To see my face on a video screen [Hook] [Verse 3] 27 years, 27 years done Written 600 songs, only 12 get sung 87,000 cigarettes have passed through these lungs And every single day I wish I'd never smoked one A week brushing my teeth and a week getting my haircut 8 years sleeping, I'm still tired when I wake up A whole year eating and I still lost weight fuck 5 proper girlfriends and 5 messy breakups 27 birthdays, 27 new years 30,000 quid, just so I could have a few beers Ever dying old hopes, ever growing new fears Don't know where I'm going, but I know how I got here [Hook 2x]
