''Topics range from anger and disillusionment with the powers that be, to a nostalgic love song about friendship. Themes of personal growth permeate throughout, with a DIY attitude being evident in its overall sound and feel. These songs were written in a pre-pandemic environment, but the seismic changes in the world since their inception has given new and deeper meanings to their subject matter, making the songs even more important to the artist and his band. Lead singer and band leader Cian has said: “20-something is the first real taste of who I want to be as an artist and as a songwriter. It’s inspired by music I actually listen to on a regular basis. Everything before this has just been to test the waters, but for the first time since this started it feels like this is what I’m really about.” Keen on not shying away from real world problems, Cian’s lyrics comment on personal and political issues. In opening himself up, he hopes 20-something connects with the listener on a much deeper level than before.''

Jungle I'll be runnin' I can feel that you just won't let go I'll be fightin' I'll be holding on to what we've lost I can't feel the love that I've known I guess it's hard to cope that we are getting old Maybe we just need to start again We can run in the rough Live the life that we want to, yeah, uh Settle down in the jungle If the world's out to get you 'Cause I know And I know Can you see the way?
