23

If you’re an audiophile and ride the MRT like I do for most of the week, you’re bound to find a great song to listen to during the ride. I found one several months ago and though the lyrics may not say much, it's a different thing altogether when you're listening to it play while going through the underground tunnel and artificial lights blur the surroundings. This:

23
Jimmy Eat World

I felt for sure last night
That once we said goodbye
No one else will know these lonely dreams
N o one else will know that part of me

I’m still driving away
And I’m sorry every day
I won’t always love these selfish things
I won’t always live
Not stopping

It was my turn to decide
I knew this was our time
No one else will have me like you do
No one else will have me, only you

You’ll sit alone forever
If you wait for the right time
What are you hoping for?
I’m here and now I’m ready
Holding on tight
Don’t give away the end
The one thing that stays mine

Amazing still it seems
I’ll be twenty-three
I won’t always love what I’ll never have
I won’t always live in my regrets

You’ll sit alone forever
If you wait for the right time
What are you hoping for?
I’m here and now I’m ready
Holding on tight
Don’t give away the end
The one thing that stays mine
