Lyrics of Dream of the Twenties by Brendan Abernathy

Just finished friends for the seventh time through
Alone in my room
Tommy′s at his girlfriend's house and Jackson is too
Ah ooh
Don′t weep for me I'm an introvert
Part of my story is that I am afraid of being burned
So I build up my walls
Don't let anybody in
I′m never enough and I′ve never been loved
I took little Italy out the bottle
Put her where she cannot bother me
Underneath my bathroom sink
And as for her photo that I never got framed
I put it up in my bedside table
Underneath the shipping labels
When I brush my teeth, I can't stand the look of me
Looking at myself, like I′m a fantasy
Or sometimes there's three of me
I′m never enough oh I've never been loved
Oh I′m never enough no I've never been loved
Oh I'm never enough
I′m never enough
Oh I′m never enough standing cold in the rough rain
Cold in the morning
Cold in the way I feel it
Got the ticket stub left in the falling rain
I bounce between my phone and my journal
Looking for clarity
A lifetime of longing and the reasons why
Are buried somewhere inside my past
So I look to the future where they tell me
There is someone to be loved
More than my reflection, the apparition
Of a woman I almost called
But I'm sinking in the traffic
Couples in their pastels
Judging me for being all by myself
This is the dream of the twenties
Go out and love anybody you want
I′m stuck in the dream of the twenties
But I don't love anybody I know
Writer(s): Brendan Lee Abernathy
