Darby Dougherty - 19 Lyrics

When I was a little queen
Everybody loved me
But then I turned fifteen
And no one seemed to want me

When I stay inside my room
They like that
When I'm keeping all the rules
They like that
When I'm doing what I choose
They fight that
They fight that

I wish I could grow up, so I could be nineteen
Cuz then I could stay out and not have to worry
Nobody to tell me, no one to control me
I'd sit on a throne and write my own story

I wish I was nineteen, nineteen
Nineteen, nineteen
I wish that I was nineteen, nineteen
Nineteen, nineteen

Used to have bigger dreams
Never cared what they told me
But now that I'm twenty-three
I'm looking for the old me

When they told me what to do
I tried that
Get a better attitude
I tried that
When I'm doing what I choose
They fight that
They fight that

I wish I could go back, to when I was nineteen
Cuz I like to stay out, but now I got worries
Nobody to help me, no one to console me
I'm feeling alone, I don't know my story

I wish I was nineteen, nineteen
Nineteen, nineteen
I wish that I was nineteen, nineteen
Nineteen, nineteen

I don't wanna grow up
I don't like the pressure
Can I get a moment?
Will I ever measure?

Now that I'm grown up
I don't want a lecture
Everything I question
Doesn't have an answer

I don't wanna grow up
I don't like the pressure
Can I get a moment?
Will I ever measure?

Now that I'm grown up
I don't want a lecture
Everything I question
Doesn't have an answer

I wish I could grow up, so I could be nineteen
Cuz then I could stay out and not have to worry
Nobody to tell me, no one to control me
I'd sit on a throne and write my own story

I wish I was nineteen, nineteen
Nineteen, nineteen
I wish that I was nineteen, nineteen

Nineteen, nineteen
Fifteen, fifteen
Nineteen, nineteen
Twenty-three, twenty-three
Who am I 'sposed to be?
