Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They tell me, “Pick a road, you’re running out of time”
Like I should know the answer at eighteen
Everybody’s got a plan written between the lines
While I’m still trying to figure out what I mean
My friends talk about their futures like they’re certain
I smile and say, “Yeah, I’ll be fine”
But when I’m alone and I close the curtains
I wonder if I’m already falling behind
[Pre-Chorus]
What if I choose wrong?
What if I’m not enough?
What if the person I become
Is someone I don’t love?
[Chorus]
I’m only eighteen, why do I have to know?
Which way to turn, where I’m supposed to go
They want a future, I just want a sign
Something to tell me that I’m doing alright
Sometimes I wanna disappear for a while
Get away from every question, every mile
I’m scared of the future, scared of wasting time
I’m eighteen, and I’m still trying to find
Trying to find…
Who I am tonight
[Verse 2]
There’s a thousand little voices in my head
“Be successful, make your parents proud”
So I keep chasing things I never really wanted
Just because everybody else is running now
And every choice feels bigger than it should
One wrong step and I could lose it all
But maybe growing up was never meant to be
Knowing how to stand before you learn to fall
[Pre-Chorus]
What if I change my mind?
What if I lose my way?
What if I need a little more time
Than everybody says?
[Chorus]
I’m only eighteen, why do I have to know?
Which way to turn, where I’m supposed to go
They want a future, I just want a sign
Something to tell me that I’m doing alright
Sometimes I wanna disappear for a while
Get away from every question, every mile
I’m scared of the future, scared of wasting time
I’m eighteen, and I’m still trying to find
Trying to find…
Who I am tonight
[Bridge]
Maybe I don’t need all the answers
Maybe I’m allowed to be afraid
Maybe every road I take
Doesn’t have to be the one that stays
And if tomorrow still feels blurry
If I don’t know what comes next
I’ll take a breath and keep on walking
I don’t have to have it figured out yet
[Final Chorus]
I’m only eighteen, I don’t have to know
Every little place that I’m supposed to go
Maybe my future isn’t written in stone
Maybe getting lost is how we find our way home
Sometimes I wanna disappear for a while
But maybe I just need to breathe and stay awhile
I’m scared of the future, but I’m still alive
I’m eighteen, and I’m learning how to find
How to find…
Who I am inside
[Outro]
They tell me, “Pick a road, you’re running out of time”
But maybe I’ve got more time than I realize
I’m only eighteen…
I’m only eighteen.
