27
Passenger

Twenty seven years, twenty seven years old

Only thing I know, the only thing that gets old

I gotta sell out if I want to get sold

Don't want the devil to be taking my soul

I write songs that come from the heart

I don't give a fuck if they get into the chart, oh no

Only way I can be, is to say what I see

And have my shadow hanging over me

I don't know where I'm running, but I know how to run

'Cause running's the thing I've always done

Oh I don't know what I'm doing, but I know what I've done

I'm a hungry heart, I'm a loaded gun

Twenty seven years, twenty seven years now

Only thing I know

I know that I don't know how

To please everybody all of the time,

'Cause everybody's always fucking changing their minds

A little bit faded

A little bit jaded

Not gonna stop and I won't be persuaded

To write words I can't believe in

To see my face on a video screen

I don't know where I'm running, but I know how to run

'Cause running's the thing I've always done

Oh I don't know what I'm doing, but I know what I've done

I'm a hungry heart, I'm a loaded gun

Twenty seven years, twenty seven years done

Written six hundred songs, only twelve get sung

Eighty seven thousand cigarettes have passed through these lungs

And every single day I wish I'd never smoked one

A week brushing my teeth and a week getting my haircut

Eight years sleeping, I'm still tired when I wake up

A whole year eating and I still lost weight, fuck

Five proper girlfriends and five messy breakups

Twenty seven birthdays, twenty seven New Years

Thirty thousand quid just so I could have a few beers

Ever dying old hopes

Ever growing new fears

Don't know where I'm going but I know how I got here

I don't know where I'm running, but I know how to run

'Cause running's the thing I've always done, oh

Oh I don't know what I'm doing, but I know what I've done

I'm a hungry heart, I'm a loaded gun, oh

Said I don't know where I'm running, but I know how to run

'Cause running's the thing I've always done, oh

Oh, I don't know what I'm doing, but I know what I've done

I'm a hungry heart, I'm a loaded gun, oh
