[verse]
She asked me if I’d had dreams before
When I was 18 and nothing more
27 is the number that I count to baby
27 is the number that I count to baby
Giants in my mind are looking down
Upon them I place a heavy crown
27 is the number that I count to baby
27 is the number that I count to baby
[pre]
I find it hard to leave the house
I focus on the inside out
My head is filling up with doubts
More than most I need you now
[Chorus]
You taught me how again
How to love myself
My voice is loud again
Twentyseven
[verse]
There is a feeling that’s holding me
There is a feeling that’s holding me down
27 is the number that I count to baby
27 is the number that I count to baby
[pre]
I find it hard to leave the house
I focus on the inside out
My head is filling up with doubts
More than most I need you now
[Chorus]
You taught me how again
How to love myself
My voice is loud again
Twentyseven
[bridge]
Stars are falling, all alone, it’s harder to pretend
That an early coffin, soon forgotten, has glory still in it
[Chorus]
You taught me how again
How to love myself
My voice is loud again
Twentyseven
[outro]
It’s the moment you so desperately crave
Running deeper, running deeper in your veins
