We used to stay up so late
Drinking in bed, listening to Morrison
Jimi was there, with all his friends
Watching you fill me up with sin
And when we kissed, I never noticed
How much you look like Cobain
Did you feel his pain?
We were so much younger then
Reaching for the heavens
We were so much younger then
You were 27
We were so much younger then
Reaching for the heavens
Wrapped up in ourselves
We were so much younger then
Reaching for the heavens
We were so much younger then
You were 27
We were so much younger then
Reaching for the heavens
Somewhere we fell
And when they roamed, you followed
Into the pit, you made me sick
But you dragged me in, into your dark
Now I can't go back
We've gone too far
Now I am 27
Reaching for the heavens
I am 27
Making bad decisions
I am 27
Reaching for the heavens
And raising a little hell
So take this piece of my heart
And bring it back to the start
Oh it makes me sad, now the music's gone
But just like Freddy, the good die young
So I'll drink this wine in my house
Bring the glass up to my mouth
Oh I'll kiss you hard with stained lips
And just be glad that we exist
So take this piece of my heart
And bring it back to the start
If you live too fast the music's gone
And 27 is much too young
