Growth Amid Chaos: Carly Rene's Monstera Chronicles
Lyrics
I hate when I get called lazy, it's not something I can control
I dislike being labeled as lazy, a trait beyond my control
Scientists say "if you don't stop, you won't live until you're old"
Scientists warn that my current pace may jeopardize a long life
Maybe I'm a little melodramatic but not in a Lorde way
Perhaps I exhibit some drama, but not in the style of Lorde
I've written too many songs that I can't even play
I've created numerous songs, yet struggle to perform them
All my plants are dying, but not my monstera
Despite my other plants failing, the monstera persists
I forget it exists, but it grows anyway
I tend to forget about it, yet it thrives independently
I'm sorry sorry sorry, I didn't mean to scare you
Apologizing for unintended actions, not meant to frighten
No one tells you how hard it is to be empathetic,
No one prepares you for the difficulty of being empathetic
I'm not emotionally stable enough for all this, it's pathetic
Expressing emotional instability, finding it pathetic
Spending my time trying to find my way out of the labyrinth
Investing time in navigating a complex situation (labyrinth)
But the voices in my head sound like a 90s synth
The internal voices resemble sounds from a 90s synthesizer
All my plants are dying, but not my monstera
Despite other plants wilting, the monstera remains resilient
I forget it exists, but it grows anyway
Oftentimes forgotten, yet it continues to flourish
I'm sorry sorry sorry, I didn't mean to scare you
Apology for any unintended fear caused
I think too much, I think too much, I think too much
Repetition emphasizing overthinking as a persistent issue
I think too much, I think too much, I think too much
-I think too much, I think too much, I think too much
-I think too much, I think too much, I think too much
-All my plants are dying, but not my monstera
Similar to line 15, highlighting the monstera's resilience
I forget it exists, but it grows anyway
Reiterating the tendency to overlook the monstera's existence
I'm sorry sorry sorry, I didn't mean to scare you
Apology reiterated for any unintended distress caused
