Nothing New (ft Phoebe Bridgers)

They tell you while you’re young
Girls, go out and have your fun
Then they hunt and slay the ones who actually do it
Criticize the way you fly
When you’re soarin’ through the sky
Shoots you down, and then they sigh and say
She looks like she’s been through it

Lord, what will become of me
Once I’ve lost my novelty?

I’ve had too much to drink tonight
And I know it’s sad, but this is what I think about
And I wake up in the middle of the night
It’s like I can feel time moving
How can a person know everything at 18 but nothin’ at 22?
And will you still want me when I’m nothin’ new?

How long will it be cute
All this crying in my room?
When you can’t blame it on my youth and roll your еyes with affection
And my cheeks are growing tirеd
From turning red and faking smiles
Are we only biding time till I lose your attention?

And someone else lights up the room
People love an ingénue

I’ve had too much to drink tonight
How did I go from growin’ up to breakin’ down
Wake up (wake up)
In the middle of the night
It’s like I can feel time moving
And will you still want me when I’m nothin’ new?

I know someday I’m gonna meet her
It’s a fever dream
The kind of radiance you only have at 17
She’ll know the way and then she’ll say she got the map from me
I’ll say I’m happy for her, then I’ll cry myself to sleep
Oh, oh, woah
Oh, oh, woah

I’ve had (I’ve had) too much to drink tonight
But I wonder if they’ll miss me once they drive me out
I wake up (wake up)
In the middle of the night
And I can feel time moving
How can a person know everything at 18 but nothin’ at 22?

And will you still want me
Will you still want me
Will you still want me
When I’m nothin’ new?
