Oldest Teenager Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Everything is wrong
Even though I do the right things
I feel so alone
Always staring at my phone
My friends are pretty cool
And my mama says she loves me
Everyday's the same, I'm the one to blame
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm the oldest teenager I know
The oldest seventeen-year-old
She thinks she'll make it on her own
Don't tell her where to go
[Verse 2]
Seen a lot of things and I've been a lot of places
None of them are home
I'm always on my own
Broke my heart again
Do I even know what love is?
Why was I obsessed?
He was such a mess
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm the oldest teenager I know
The oldest seventeen-year-old
She thinks she'll make it on her own
Don't tell her where to go
Everything is wrong
Even though I do the right things
I feel so alone
Always staring at my phone
My friends are pretty cool
And my mama says she loves me
Everyday's the same, I'm the one to blame
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm the oldest teenager I know
The oldest seventeen-year-old
She thinks she'll make it on her own
Don't tell her where to go
[Verse 2]
Seen a lot of things and I've been a lot of places
None of them are home
I'm always on my own
Broke my heart again
Do I even know what love is?
Why was I obsessed?
He was such a mess
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm the oldest teenager I know
The oldest seventeen-year-old
She thinks she'll make it on her own
Don't tell her where to go
[Chorus]
Maybe there's something better
Than all I've ever known
Something better
Than the pictures in this phone
Stories and faces
Movies and places, I'll never be
I wanna see if there's
Something better
Than all I've ever known
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
[Verse 3]
Everything is wrong
Even though I do the right things
Learning as I go
Bear with me as I grow
There's so much on my mind
And it's weighing on me heavy
There's no way to know but all I need is
[Chorus]
Something better
Than all I've ever known
Something better
Than the pictures in this phone
Stories and faces
Movies and places I'll never be
I wanna see if there's
Something better
Than all I've ever known
Maybe there's something better
Than all I've ever known
Something better
Than the pictures in this phone
Stories and faces
Movies and places, I'll never be
I wanna see if there's
Something better
Than all I've ever known
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
[Verse 3]
Everything is wrong
Even though I do the right things
Learning as I go
Bear with me as I grow
There's so much on my mind
And it's weighing on me heavy
There's no way to know but all I need is
[Chorus]
Something better
Than all I've ever known
Something better
Than the pictures in this phone
Stories and faces
Movies and places I'll never be
I wanna see if there's
Something better
Than all I've ever known
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh, oh-oh
