Lyrics Khalid – Twenty One
Text:
You just turned 21
So lately you been drinkin’
Wasted on alcohol
You chase to fight the feeling
Would that be easy for you then, then
So lay with me, lay with me
We’re underneath the bleachers
Stay or leave, stay or leave
I hope you’ll never leave
And all of these memories
Crawling underneath your skin, skin
‘Cause you’re in pain
But who’s to blame?
All our lives, it never ends
Yeah, alright
You gotta hold on tight
Yeah, alright
Alright
Don’t believe everything
The shaky life gives you anxiety
But finally I see you smiling
When you say you need privacy
You’re only hiding from yourself (mhmm)
You say I’m fine coming home
I see the sun come up and shut the blinds
Episodes, I know I never take my own advice when I’m wrong
But I can’t do it by myself, no
‘Cause you’re in pain
But who’s to blame?
Yeah, alright (alright)
You gotta hold on tight
Yeah, alright
You gotta hold on tight
‘Cause I’m in pain
But I’m to blame
To end this fire
I have to change
Yeah, alright
You gotta hold on tight
Yeah, alright
Hold on tight
