Gloria Nussbaum - Twenty lyrics
Artist: Gloria Nussbaum
album: Camel Blues
I'm in the palm of the rich kids
Cheap highs on marble stone kitchens
Night after night, I'm a star again
It's so hard to wish things were different
I'm losing but act like I'm winning
She asks me if I want to give in
Here we use pain as a charmer
Here there's no end or beginning
I wish I could go anywhere but home
Don't wanna go to mine, so can we go to yours?
Let's go play pretend
Pretend we're not alone
Moving through unknown territory
Visions of hazel eyes, patchouli
Scent of your body comes back to me
I wash it down with his hands on me
Last night I saw you with someone new
Appeared with more force than I thought you'd do
Silence within me, it makes me move
Now I run wild and you watch me, too
I wish I could go anywhere but home
Don't wanna go to mine, so can we go to yours?
Let's go play pretend
Pretend we're not alone
What a time to be twenty
You say I belong here
But it's been so fucking empty
With all the indifference and nosebleeds
What a time to be twenty
Cheap highs on marble stone kitchens
Night after night, I'm a star again
It's so hard to wish things were different
I'm losing but act like I'm winning
She asks me if I want to give in
Here we use pain as a charmer
Here there's no end or beginning
I wish I could go anywhere but home
Don't wanna go to mine, so can we go to yours?
Let's go play pretend
Pretend we're not alone
Moving through unknown territory
Visions of hazel eyes, patchouli
Scent of your body comes back to me
I wash it down with his hands on me
Last night I saw you with someone new
Appeared with more force than I thought you'd do
Silence within me, it makes me move
Now I run wild and you watch me, too
I wish I could go anywhere but home
Don't wanna go to mine, so can we go to yours?
Let's go play pretend
Pretend we're not alone
What a time to be twenty
You say I belong here
But it's been so fucking empty
With all the indifference and nosebleeds
What a time to be twenty
