Twenty26

Lyrics

Verse 1
Late nights
Blue glare on my face
Coffee rings
On a calendar page
Every "not yet"
Felt close to "never"
Still I stayed
Stubborn under pressure

Little heartbeat
Under all that doubt
Saving playlists
Of the ways out
Told my friends
"I'm fine
Just tired"
Secretly wired
To something higher

Chorus
Twenty26
It hits
Everything starts lining up
All the small bets I made on myself
Coming up
Coming up
Every closed door flips its script
I can feel the future turn
Twenty26
It sticks
All the hard work finally burns
Bright for me
Bright for me (oh)

Verse 2
Same streets
But they shine brand new
Same shoes
But they fly me through
Every inbox
Lighting up my name
Like they always knew
I'd play this game

Still scared
But I breathe in deep
Old fear
Falling off in sheets
Laughing at
Every almost-miss
Every "please
Not this"
Led me to this

Chorus
Twenty26
It hits
Everything starts lining up
All the small bets I made on myself
Coming up
Coming up
Every closed door flips its script
I can feel the future turn
Twenty26
It sticks
All the hard work finally burns
Bright for me
Bright for me (yeah)

Bridge
All those nights I nearly quit (nearly quit)
Talking circles in my head
I remember it
Now the weight falls off my chest
Like dust from an old cassette
I was late
But I arrived
Right on time for my own life

Chorus
Twenty26
It hits
Everything starts lining up
All the small bets I made on myself
Coming up
Coming up
Every closed door flips its script
I can feel the future turn
Twenty26
It sticks
All the hard work finally burns
Bright for me
Bright for me (oh)
Bright for me
Bright for me
