lyrics

Well I’d like to think that I’m something special but I know this isn’t true.
Cause every real compliment has a part in it that always ways down on you.
And I can’t remember anything from the last 6 months.
All I have are horn dog friends, who always love to joke about slut butts.
And I’m so tired of radio hits and cheap headphones and social clicks.
Thinking of things that don’t think of me.
I guess I’m missing out on opportunity.

Somewhere, somehow, we could talk about
How we all love to complain.
But I guess it’s not that easy.
Cause everyone doesn’t think like I do.

I’ve been over committed too many times now
Growing up was a letdown.
And not to say that your always wrong but it seems to me that your always wrong.
And yes I have an uneasy heart. And I should probably just try to get some sleep.
But I been spending all my time working on when and where I wanna be, instead of thinking of things that don’t think of me.

So why does your opinion somehow decide
My value as a person?
You’ve been busy complaining the whole time.
And you’re so generic that I think you should know
That I been searching for something original.
And that in the meantime you’ve brought nothing good to the table.


Somewhere, somehow, we could talk about
How we all love to complain.
But I guess it’s not that easy.
Cause everyone doesn’t think like I do.

I’ve been over committed too many times now
Growing up was a letdown.
And not to say that your always wrong but it seems to me that your always wrong.
And yes I have an uneasy heart. And I should probably just try to get some sleep.
But I been spending all my time working on when and where I wanna be, instead of thinking of things that don’t think of me.

But I feel fine. Yes sometimes, I feel fine.

And I’ll just justify all my excuses for not finding happiness.
But I think I’d rather be put into the ground.
Cause I know that there’s so much more than this.
But I told myself I’d try harder this time around.
