R.M Bartley - Old Enough Lyrics

Tried my best not to have this sound cliché
But I'm pretty sure I heard that line before
So I guess I'll stick to writing poetry
Nonetheless I'll wrap the words around the song
So that I've got one more way to say
That I don't think that I'll grow old enough to see my friends have kids
And I don't think that I will buy a house the way my parents did
So give me something I can get too invested in
I don't have anything else to do
I've tried and tried and tried and tried
And all that I can see
Is I am just a coupla inches too wide or too big
For this jigsaw puzzle and I'm just so sick of it
I don't think that I'll grow old enough to see my friends have kids
I don't think that I will buy a house the way my parents did
Mix it up and try again to find another friend
Who makes the world feel perhaps hospitable
For once I wish I could stick around
Find some old ground
That I could call my own
That I could build a home
I could build a home
Then I could build a home
And I could build a home
