You're eighteen
You don't know where to cling
You don't know who to talk to
You don't know what to make of yourself
What can we do about it? (What can we do about it?, What can we do about it?)
You ask me on Friday (Friday, Friday, Friday)

I'm eighteen
I'm not like the others
I'm not looking for a university
But I'm trying to calm down
And what can I do about it? (And what can I do about it? What can I do about it?)
Maybe I'll live like this (Maybe I'll live like this, I'll live like this)

I dreamed of Amsterdam and cigarettes
Road trips with lifelong friends
No one ever got their driver's license
No one ever accomplished anything anymore
And if I passed by here
I wouldn't mind
Remembering school and remembering the parties
If I passed by here
I wouldn't mind
Pretending that nothing happened

Classical high school and then Fine Arts
You hang out with your older friends
But you don't talk about your problems
And I've made so many mistakes

You, on the other hand, are eighteen
And you don't know how to relate
If maybe in clubs and alcohol with sedatives
What can we do about it? (What can we do about it?, What can we do about it?)
I ask the friends outside (the friends outside, friends outside)

I'm eighteen and I'm not like the others
But you don't know how many times they've tried to change me
And what can I do about it? (And what can I do about it? What can I do about it?)
If I'm not right for you (I'm not right for you)

We'll see each other when we're older, when we're tired
Yes, we'll see each other
We'll see each other when we're older, older, older
If, we get there
We'll see each other when we're older, when we're tired
Yes, we'll see each other
We'll see each other when we're older, older, older
If, we get there

I'm eighteen and I'm not like the others
And you don't know how many times they've tried to change me
And what can I do about it? (And what can I do about it? What can I do about it?)
If I'm not right for you (I'm not right for you, for you)
I'm eighteen and I'm not like the others
But you don't know how many times they've tried to change me
And what can I do about it? (And what can I do about it? What can I do about it?)
If I'm not right for you (I'm not right for you)

I'm 18 years old
