lyrics:
i think i’m stuck in a rut
when does my life begin
it’s like a kick in the gut
i’m tired of all this waiting waiting
they say that i’m too young
to really know what i want
and i know i’m not sure
but this isn’t want i though
still live at home
and i’m still alone
and there’s been no change
don’t tell me this is how it stays
when i looked to the future i dreamed of adventure
but i’m still stuck in this town
whenever i looked forward i always aimed skywards
now things keep going down
they say “these are the best years of your life”
i say i wanna run away and cry
when i looked to the future i dreamed of adventure
but now the future doesn’t look so bright
they say 18 is too young
to become so cynical
but anyone who knows me well
see this behaviour as typical
they’ll say ‘that girl is never happy unless she’s had some wine”
or “she acts like she’s unhappy but secretly she’s fine”
so i'll take off this mask
if you have to ask
still live at home
and i’m still alone
and there’s been no change
don’t tell me this is how it stays
when i looked to the future i dreamed of adventure
but i’m still stuck in this town
whenever i looked forward i always aimed skywards
now things keep going down
they say “these are the best years of your life”
i say i wanna run away and cry
when i looked to the future i dreamed of adventure
but now the future doesn’t look so bright
when i looked to the future i dreamed of adventure
but i’m still stuck in this town
whenever i looked forward i always aimed skywards
now things keep going down
they say “these are the best years of your life”
i say i wanna run away and cry
when i looked to the future i dreamed of adventure
that doesn't seem right

I listened to this five years ago, and, well. I'm 19 now. It's... accurate.
Why is this so true? I am still stuck in my small town, I have worried so much about paying for college that I actually HAVE broken down and cried. Thanks for this song
i feel like this, it comes in waves of "when do i do something with my life? when does my future begin?" but i guess we still have time huh?
"when i looked to the future i dreamed of adventure ,but im still stuck in this town"💞👏👏❤🙌👈👈this is my new drug,god,i like it ❤
Hey, I recently just came back to this video and listened to it and just cried. This is exactly how I feel and why I am actually dropping out of college and possibly moving and focusing on singing and youtube and doing everything that makes me happy. Thank you so much for making this. Nothing needs to stay the same, especially if it's making you unhappy. Remember to take risks and do what it takes to make yourself happy, it's worth it.
this song is so beautiful oh my goodness. i would say this song fits me but i'm only in my freshman year of high school. all my life i was sO excited to be in high school and now i realize it sucks and nothing is going how i dreamed it to be so far. i knoW school will get better because freshman year sucks.
I felt like this during gcses. I felt caged in and it really messed up my mental health. But now I've started sixth form things have gotten a lot better. I hope I all gets better for you, Beth. You deserve everything you've ever dreamed of. xxx
welp this made me cry pretty hard. these lyrics were literally me at age 17 and large parts of it still hit close to home at 21 even tho i left the town and found love like wow i wish i could put emotions to lyrics like this though damn
The thing about college is that it's not what anyone expects it to be. the best advice i can give you is just take it day by day.
*that awkward moment when you love this song but make it sound like a dying cow whilst singing it*
i first listened to this song a few years ago and its been stuck in my head ever since
I identify so so much with song, it's almost uplifting. thank you for this incredible song :)
this is the song that is describing my life right now
I love this song so much, you are absolutely amazing at writing.
I hope everything gets better.
My my. This is so beatiful. I can relate to this sooo much. I just started middle school(7th grade) and I really don't like it. I look at my friends and just have this gut wrenching feeling we are going to be torn apart and that this year is going to be absolutely miserable.
Beth I love the songs you make 😩😩 you're an amazing singer 😍😍
Beth, this song is absolutely beautiful! All of your covers and original works are beautiful as well
I just started high school this year and it's not what I expected it to be. This song speaks to me in so many ways. You are so talented and I love you so muchhhh ❤
i have listened to this song like 50 times today and it's so perfect and beautiful
I swear I love your music so much
Why're all your songs so relatable
I love this!!
I seriously love you you're awesome
Loved this, so beautiful.
This was amazing, you're so beautiful!
Wow, I can relate to the song, I thought things were going to be great when I started college, I Thought to myself "maybe this time I will make it right" no more loneliness I thought, what a big lie that was, good luck and farewell, That was a beautiful song, I like your voice.
THIS IS BEAUTIFUL AND ANGSTY AND I AM SO EMOTIONAL
OMG this is such a good song 💖💖💖
I got so excited when I saw this omg
this song is amazing thank you for writing it, i really needed this and i didn't even know it until i clicked on your video
Wowza!!! So much love for this. It’s amazing
this is so good Beth, I have tears in my eyes. This was definitely worth the wait, you sing with so much emotion it gives me chills. Great job, keep it up
Your voice is SO BOOTYFUL
This is amazing
This is the most beautiful song, your voice is like magic
Missed you Beth. I also just started my first year of college as well, I hope things turn around for you, it's definitely hard, different, and crazy stressful but we'll get through this together!!
wow, just wow. Amazing song, keep at it, you're so talented. I hope your life turns out the way you want it.
the best think to see now amazing song so beautifull
Worth the wait
Baeeee you're back!!!!
Hey Beth, I absolutely love this song, and I'm really sorry to hear that college isn't what you expected so far. I've started university this year and I personally love it, but one of my friends is really not having a good time and I think he's feeling a lot of the same stuff you've articulated here. I have no advice other than I hope you keep doing what makes you happy, and I wish you luck in the future, whatever happens!
correct lyrics:
i think i’m stuck in a rut
when does my life begin
it’s like a kick in the gut
i’m tired of all this waiting waiting
they say that i’m too young
to really know what i want
and maybe i’m not sure
but this isn’t want i though
still live at home
and i’m still alone
nothing's change

don’t tell me this is how it stays

but now the future doesn’t look so bright
it's not that bright
when i looked to the future i dreamed of adventure
but i’m still stuck in this town
whenever i looked forward i always aimed skywards
now things keep going down
they say “these are the best years of your life”
i say i wanna break down and cry
when i looked to the future i dreamed of adventure
that doesn't seem right

You're songs are so inspirational. You probably won't understand, but you are up next to twenty one pilots on the list of my favorite artists.
I YELLED IM EXciTED
We're here for you, Beth! Take care, love you xxx
(I'm so soupy)
Not a breakup song! We're making progress!
I'm kind of in the opposite situation, but love your music
This song is gr8. I feel the same way TBH. Colllege isn't all it's cracked up to be
I am now officially scared for my future :))
But anyways!! I hope things get better at your college !!
Yasss this song was so great
it literally depicted my life right now, and so did what you said at the beginning. I'm not enjoying college (I think it's different in England to Ireland though as you said you're doing a degree?)
Faith Jones yeah college in UK is what we call secondary school in Ireland. She means she started uni
Linda Pentony oh okay ^.^ if I get through college I'll have that joy to face..
If you don't like your college you can transfer to a different one where you'd be happier xx lovely song btw xx
Also you have a really lovely voice, I always enjoy hearing you sing xx
guess who's back,
back again,
blue hairs back,
back again,
doing her thing,
guess who's back,
guess who's back,
guess who's back :)
Hello Beth! Get in touch with me, if you would. I'm easy to find on most platforms.

You're probably too creative for college...what are you majoring in?
