Lyrics
There ain't much to do when you're twelve
Expressing the limited activities or interests at the age of twelve.
Wait 'till you know how to do everything well
Anticipating gaining proficiency in various skills as one grows older.
I see that you're older
Acknowledging someone's older age.
Tell me what it's like to be it
Inquiring about the experience of being older.
'Cause they tell me I should
Receiving advice or societal expectations to conform to certain standards.
Take it slow and I do
Following the advice to take life slowly.
But still I wanna be
Expressing a desire for personal transformation in adulthood.
A different person when I'm a grown-up
Envisioning a different identity in adulthood.
And (All) the places I'll go
Reflecting on the vast possibilities and experiences in the future.
You won't believe
Highlighting the unbelievable nature of future experiences.
You won't believe your eyes
Emphasizing the surprising and remarkable aspects of the future.
I'll never feel low
Committing to maintaining a positive outlook in the future.
Can't wait to be
Expressing eagerness and anticipation for the future.
Can't wait to be pretty
Desiring to become aesthetically pleasing or attractive.
It's pretty boring being sixteen
Conveying the mundane nature of being sixteen years old.
Thought I'd fall in love
Expecting to experience romantic love at this age.
Thought I'd learn how to drive
Anticipating learning to drive but facing challenges.
But all I've got's anxiety
Expressing feelings of anxiety despite expectations.
And maybe I don't wanna be alive
Contemplating the value of life and expressing uncertainty.
And now I just can't
Struggling to adhere to the advice to take life slowly.
Take it slow but I bet
Believing in personal growth despite the current struggles.
Soon I'll be a different person
Envisioning a transformed self in the near future.
Can't wait 'till I'm a grown-up
Eagerly looking forward to adulthood.
And (All) the places I'll go
Reiterating the anticipation of diverse experiences in the future.
You won't believe
Highlighting the unbelievable nature of future experiences (repeated).
You won't believe your eyes
Emphasizing the surprising and remarkable aspects of the future (repeated).
I'll never feel low
Committing to maintaining a positive outlook in the future (repeated).
Can't wait to be
Expressing continued eagerness and anticipation for the future.
Can't wait to be pretty
Reiterating the desire to become aesthetically pleasing or attractive.
Glad you made it to your twenties
Wishing someone well in their twenties.
Glad you wrote down every thought on your mind
Appreciating the act of expressing one's thoughts in writing.
I think that we're pretty
Asserting a positive self-perception.
I think you should know we'll be just fine
Assuring that everything will be fine in the future.
