Ever looked back at your younger self and realized things weren't as rosy as they seemed? Demi Lovato's heartfelt lyrics dive into the complex emotions of reflecting on a past relationship with a significant age gap. The song explores the confusion and manipulation experienced by a 17-year-old involved with someone 12 years older. Now, at 29, Demi sees the situation clearly, recognizing the imbalance of power and consent issues that were present. It's a powerful anthem of self-awareness and growth, highlighting how time can bring clarity to situations that once felt like innocent fantasies but were actually far from it.
29
Lyrics
Petal on the vine, too young to drink wine
Just five years a bleeder
Student and a teacher
Far from innocent, what the fuck's consent?
Numbers told you not to
But that didn't stop you
Finally twenty-nine
Funny, just like you were at the time
Thought it was a teenage dream
Just a fantasy
But was it yours or was it mine?
Seventeen, twenty-nine
Whoa, oh
Seventeen, twenty-nine
Had me in your grip, went beautifully with
All my daddy issues and this shit continues
I see you're quite the collector
Yeah, you're twelve years her elder
Maybe now it doesn't matter
But I know fucking better
Now I know fucking better 'cause I'm
Finally twenty-nine
Funny, just like you were at the time
Thought it was a teenage dream
Just a fantasy
But was it yours or was it mine?
Seventeen, twenty-nine
Whoa, (whoa) oh
Seventeen, twenty-nine
Whoa, (oh) oh
Seventeen, twenty-nine
Finally twenty-nine
Seventeen would never cross my mind
Thought it was a teenage dream, a fantasy
But it was yours, it wasn't mine
Seventeen, twenty-nine
Whoa, oh
