A Month Today - Ben Lee

Just 18 I’ve seen the world

Done more than some their whole lives unfold

Still at school just saving face

But a month today I’ll be leaving this place

I’ve lived a million lives so far

But I’m still naive and a broken heart

I feel like I’ve heard it all before

With a whole life ahead to hear a whole lot more

You wouldn’t believe half the things I’ve seen

Way too much for just 18

I’ve written songs about them all so far

And played them all on an acoustic guitar

Life is good, it’s been alright to me

I’ve recorded my heart on a couple LPs

It all comes down to the same old thing

Trying to find someone to share it with

I’m lost, I know that the world is weird

I’m swimming in waters that I used to fear

Crazy things have made me kind of tough

Sometimes I think that I’ve seen too much

Just 18 I’ve seen the world

Done more than some their whole lives unfold

Still at school just saving face

But a month today I’ll be leaving this place

But a month today I’ll be leaving this place
