Young enough
Navigating Youth's Trials: Porcelain People's 'Young Enough' Meaning
Lyrics
When you've been on your own for too long
Feeling the impact of prolonged solitude
You tend to try some new stuff
Exploring new experiences due to being alone
You taste new lips
Engaging in intimate encounters with others
You don't watch TV
Choosing to avoid television
You don't sleep
Experiencing insomnia or a disrupted sleep pattern
But you're down for it
Willing to embrace new experiences
Or so you thought
Initially believing one is prepared for the consequences
Or so you thought
Repeating the realization that one may not be prepared
But you're not young enough
Feeling that youthfulness is lacking
And it's so hard for me to keep some
Struggling to fulfill promises made
Of the promises that I have done
Reflecting on unfulfilled commitments
Too many drinks
Excessive alcohol consumption
Too many lips
Engaging in multiple romantic relationships
I needed sleep
Recognizing the need for rest and sleep
I'm not down for it
No longer willing to participate in certain activities
Not anymore
Expressing a change in attitude or priorities
Not anymore
Reinforcing the shift away from previous behaviors
'Cause I'm not young enough
Acknowledging the absence of youthfulness
And it's indeed such a pain to wake up
Finding it challenging to face reality upon waking up
To walk out and realize there are still clouds
Realizing unexpected difficulties or challenges
It's not my fault, it's what I least wanted
Attributing challenges to external factors
How did I get here?
Questioning how one arrived at the current situation
Well I guess I earned it
Accepting responsibility for one's circumstances
I can say so
Expressing confidence in acknowledging earned consequences
I can say so
Reiterating the acknowledgment of earned consequences
I think I'm young enough
Feeling a sense of remaining youthfulness
And if someone someday asked me to
Contemplating giving advice to others
Give them advice not to break
Acknowledging the potential disappointment in the advice
It would be fun, such a disappointment
Anticipating the humorous aspect of the advice
I'd laugh at first but what I would say is
Acknowledging uncertainty in offering advice
I do not know
Expressing a lack of knowledge or certainty
I do not know
Reiterating the lack of knowledge or certainty
I'm not old enough
Feeling insufficiently experienced or mature
