[Verse 1]

You walked in soft

Talked loud in my chest

Made a mess out of calm

Left me cleaning the rest

You said, "slow down"

But you sped through me fast

Funny how the ones who ghost

Always say they're built to last

[Pre-Chorus]

And I hate how I still flinch

When your name hits my phone

'Cause you never really loved me

You just hated being alone

[Chorus]

At 24

I don't know shit but I know your kind

Boy who kiss you like a secret

Then erase you in their mind

Yeah, 24

And I'm still here crying on my floor

'Cause I gave you evеry fault line

And you still wanted more

I don't know lifе

I don't know love

But I know that you were never ever close enough

For 24

[Verse 2]

You came in waves

Left salt in my hair

Said, “I care about you"

But your actions didn't care

You were half in, half out

Always something in between

A body in my bed

Never present in the scene

[Pre-Chorus]

And I kept rewriting you

Into someone you weren't

'Cause wanting you to want me

Was a habit that hurt

[Chorus]

At 24

I don't know shit but I know the ache

How a boy can make you fragile

With the smallest fucking break

Yeah, 24

Is screaming "he's not worth it" to the door

But still replaying every memory

For the thousandth time or more

I don't know life

I don't know love

But I know you didn't try

And that's enough

For 24

[Bridge]

You

You were all talk

No truth

I bent my spine

To fit your youth

You left your mark on everything

My songs, my nights, my dopamine

But I'm done with being someone's almost, nearly, halfway thing

[Breakdown]

I wanted real

You wanted ease

I gave you heart

You gave me leave

You called it bad timing

But that's just cheap

You weren't scared of love

You were scared of me

[Chorus]

So 24

I'm finally done with keeping score

You took pieces that were never yours to take before

Yeah, 24

And I'm not soft-spoken anymore

I'm the one who shuts you out

When you come crawling back for more

I don't know life

I don't know love

But I know I'm better off

And that's enough

For 24
