Leap Year

At 19
 I didn't think I'd make it to 23,
 but I'm happy to be here
 Welcome back from the dark side
 Tried and tested by successions of hard times
 Take a deep breath,
 this isn't over yet
 Air out the carbon monoxide
 There's a voice in the back of my head and it's deafening
 All my friends hate my guts, feel the weight of everything
 Bearing down on my shoulders
 Down on my shoulders
 Down on my shoulders
 I see
 My past self standing in front of me
 It's back like a leap year
 At 19
 I didn't think I'd make it to 23,
 but I'm happy to be here
 I'm happy to be here
 I think I saw you in a past life
 Enamored of the glow from the gas light
 In a younger skin,
 you dug your fingers in
 I walked away on the last night
 Feeling drained, looking up at the best that's ahead of me
 Hold it down, power through, live to spite my enemies
 You wanna see me crumble
 You wanna see me crumble,
 dead on arrival
 But I won't
 Give you that satisfaction
 Everything crashing over me
 Nowadays feels so weightless
 The context is sobering
 You can't take that away from me
 You can't take that away from me
 You can't take that away from me
 You can't take that away from me
 You can't take that away from me
 You can't take that away from me.
 You can't take that away
 I see
 My past self standing in front of me
 It's back like a leap year
 At 19
 I didn't think I'd make it to 23
 I see
 My past self standing in front of me
 It's back like a leap year
 At 19
 I didn't think I'd make it to 23,
 but I'm happy to be here
 I'm happy to be here
 I'm happy to be here
