27 Club - Raleigh Ritchie

I just «go"on overload and I can’t catch up with my brain

I’m lost, caught between a rock and a hard place

At what cost?

Don’t burn out, maybe things could change

I guess I could be better but I know I’ll be okay

And I know I could feel better if I just had one more day

I feel bad I never joined the 27 club

I never knew that I would fall in love, level up

Made a date with the devil and then I stood him up

I’m still afraid he’s gonna get to me and settle up

My potential is a double edged sword

A cheque I wanna cash, can’t afford

Fuck it, I’m a liar, I’m a fraud, rather hit a wall than a door

We’ve been here before

Maybe I get tired being awful

Maybe I could try it with the small talk

Maybe I’m a riot when I’m 'on one'

Maybe I’m the one, maybe god’s son

Maybe I’m a swan song gone wrong

There’s no black in the Union Jack but that’s history

Must be a sign on my back that says 'kick me'

Every sly look I ever got stays with me

Every cheap shot they ever took never missed me

I keep my heart in my chest, I get pains

I wear my heart on my sleeve, I’ll get fleeced

I try and sit in the sun, it just rains

I keep forgetting to breathe (Just breathe)

Overwhelm, overload

Overthought, overgrown

Shut it out, tone it down

I’m past 27, it’s over now
