LYRICS:

You can laugh at it, 
You can laugh and watch the show until you’re old 
You can drink till it, till it looks a little strange, a little slower 
They can say relax, 
And you might find a night 
With a girl on your chest where all seems right
But the more you see, the less you know
The more it hits home 
Oooh 

“What if?” 
They’re the words that I can’t unhear
“What if?” 
I did everything wrong 
“What if?” 
Running round missing the song 
But who dares sing along to the

Quarter life, quarter life, quarter life crisis
Here we go… 
Quarter life, quarter life, quarter life crisis
Here we go… 

You can dance to it, watch your boots wear down your youth to some brainless hit 
You can scream at it, write a tirade till your heart aches ‘please live and let live’ 
They can say it gets better
Soon you’ll be in your autumn sweater, a family and a book by your side 
But the more you read the less you know
The more it hits home

“What if?” x3
The best is really done 
“What if?” x2
Everybodys someones pawn 
“What if?” x2 
There’s some money makin’ scheme  
They bend until it seems like its the dream ohh 

Quarter life, quarter life, quarter life crisis
Here we go… 
Quarter life, quarter life, quarter life crisis
Here we go…  

Half of a quarter life is an eighth
I thought by then I’d find my place 
Spent ten years just keeping the faith now
Everyones saying goodbye 
Half of a quarter life is an eighth (You… )
I thought by then I’d find my place (Are not alone…) 
Spent ten years just keeping the faith now
Everyones saying goodbye 
Saying goodbye… 

Solo 

What if what if
This world will soon be gone 
What if what if
Its too late to sing along 
What if what if 
All these questions are to blame
Yet in the question is my name, 
I feel my name deep in the 

Quarter life, quarter life, quarter life crisis
Here we go… 
Quarter life, quarter life, quarter life crisis
Here we go…
Quarter life, quarter life, quarter life… 
Oooh but you never can tell 
Quarter life, quarter life, quarter life….
Could be sooner or later the 

Quarter life, quarter life… 
Quarter life, quarter life…
