I´m fading away, off some kind of drug
Maybe it´s lust, maybe it´s love
I know I said I´d straighten out a week ago
I´m feeling though, ´bout to reach my peak, you know

The city´s got me falling off
I´m fading away, I´m losing my head
I know you said leave, but fuck what you said
´Cause you´ve been steady, crawling on your knees again
You need a friend
And I´ve been on the pills again

Baby´s only twenty-three
Dancing under lights since she was seventeen
Her brain´s flooded with ketamine
High from everybody, low from self-esteem
It´s selfish but she never sleeps
Honestly, she needs a little sympathy
Look what´s gotten into me?
But baby´s only twenty-three
Baby´s only twenty-three

I´m caught in the buzz
Another one down, I´m pushing my luck
The future´s never looked so bright, it´s blinding me
It´s hard to see, I´m  swimming through dopamine
Your body looks like heaven and
I wanna give up, I just wanna leave
I´m floating away, I´m caught in the breeze
But she´s been so dramatic with these paragraphs
Her broken heart, chemicals can mend it fast

Baby´s only twenty-three
Dancing under lights since she was seventeen
Her brain´s flooded with ketamine
High from everybody, low from self-esteem
It´s selfish but she never sleeps
Honestly, she needs a little sympathy
Look what´s gotten into me?

But baby´s only twenty-three
Yeah, baby´s only twenty-three

I can´t believe this is happening
What did I do? What did she do to me?
This isn´t true to me, she´s quite acute it seems
Now I´m seeking therapy, she won´t be there for me
Mending my brain again
Please don´t give up on me
This hurts tremendously
How will this end for me?
Deal with this happening, deal with this happening?
Fuck it she´s dead to me
I´m on her frequency
I know the shit that she´s thinking
I know the shit that she´s thinking

I´m on her frequency

Twenty-three
Dancing under lights since she was seventeen
Her brain´s flooded with ketamine
High from everybody, low from self-esteem
It´s selfish but she never sleeps
Honestly, she needs a little sympathy
Look what´s gotten into me?
But baby´s only twenty-three
Baby´s only twenty-three
