Lyrics

Lines form on my face and hands

Physical signs of aging are becoming evident on my face and hands.

Lines form from the ups and down

Life experiences, both positive and negative, are leaving their mark on me.

I'm in the middle without any plans

I find myself in a state of uncertainty without specific plans.

I'm a boy and I'm a man

I am in a transitional phase, possessing qualities of both a boy and a man.

I'm eighteen and I don't know what I want

Despite being eighteen, I lack a clear understanding of my desires and goals.

Eighteen, I just don't know what I want

At eighteen, I still struggle to define my aspirations and preferences.

Eighteen, I gotta get away

Feeling the urge to escape or break free from my current situation.

I've gotta get out of this place

I feel the need to leave the current place I am in.

I'll go running into outer space

Expressing a desire to explore new and unknown territories, possibly metaphorically referred to as outer space.

Oh yeah

An exclamation, emphasizing the previous statement.

I've got a baby's brain and an old man's heart

Describing a contrast between youthful innocence (baby's brain) and emotional maturity (old man's heart).

Took eighteen years to get this far

It took eighteen years to reach the current stage of development.

Don't always know what I'm talking about

Admitting uncertainty and confusion in communication.

Feels like I'm in the middle of doubt

Feeling a sense of uncertainty and indecision.

'Cause I'm

Transition to the chorus.

Eighteen, I get confused everyday

Expressing ongoing confusion and lack of clarity in daily life.

Eighteen, I just don't know what to say

Continuing to express uncertainty and a struggle to articulate thoughts.

Eighteen, I gotta get way

Reiterating the desire to escape or break away.

Oh, lines form on my face and hands

Repetition of the physical signs of aging, emphasizing their persistence.

Lines form on the left and right

Highlighting the presence of challenges and experiences on both sides of life's spectrum.

I'm in the middle, the middle of life

Being in the middle phase of life, navigating the complexities of adolescence and adulthood.

I'm a boy and I'm a man

Reiteration of the dual nature of being both a boy and a man.

I'm eighteen and I like it

Expressing a positive sentiment about being eighteen.

Yes I like it

Affirming the positive feelings about the current age.

Well, I like it, love it, like it, love it

Repetition emphasizing the enjoyment and positive feelings associated with being eighteen.

Eighteen, eighteen eighteen

Repeating the age as a form of emphasis.

I'm eighteen and I like it

Reaffirming the positive sentiment about being eighteen.
