Tender Age: Phrase used in connection with someone who is still young and lacks experience.
When I pulled out a blue ticket with tender age written on it
I thought there isn't a better word to describe my life at this moment
I'm 18 years old and 19 days away from graduating
I still don't know what I'm doing
Once you hit 18 parents tend to forget that we're still young, still learning,
they think you should have life all figured out by now
well sorry but I don't,
I'm not even close
this is my last year of high school
my last year of living at home
my last year of being a regular LP kid
my last year of being around people I've known since 2nd grade
Everyone I've talked to says that the years after high school
are the years you learn the most
but I'm still just a high school kid
I worry about what kind of roommates I'll get
I keep forgetting to check the oil in my car
I work at a snow shack (the only job I've ever liked if I'm being honest)
I listen to music as loud as possible
I forget things all the time
I'm late to everything, every time
I don't know what it's like to live on a campus
I haven't traveled around the world or lived anywhere besides Utah
I think tax forms look like a foreign language
I'm still just a high school kid
I'm at the tender age of 18
and I still don't know what I'm doing
