GREAT LAKES
Navigating Friendship Storms: cleopatrick's 'GREAT LAKES' Insights
Lyrics
And so I'm told
Introduction to a statement or story
That's how it goes
Expressing acceptance of a situation
Yeah, you're gonna get old before you know
Acknowledging the inevitability of aging
You'll be stuck fucking cold, fully froze
Anticipating difficulties or challenges
I'm hoping that I've got a bit of time though
Hoping for more time before facing challenges
But maybe I'm an asshole, maybe I'm a faker
Self-reflecting on personal characteristics
Maybe I'm too bashful but I can't seem to shake the
Expressing uncertainty or self-doubt
Feeling that my friends don't like me like the next guy
Feeling a lack of connection with friends
I can't even come close, falling by the wayside
Experiencing exclusion or neglect
Tryna figure out who I am
Struggling with self-identity
Where I stand
Searching for one's place or role
And if anyone's on my side
Questioning support from others
But no one's on my side
Feeling isolated or unsupported
Then again, fair-weather friends
Noticing superficial friendships
People just put me where they want
Being manipulated or used by others
And then use me accordingly
Reflecting on exploitation
So for now, 'til I'm buried downtown
Temporary resolution until death
Maybe I don't wanna get pushed around
Asserting a desire for autonomy
Well, maybe I don't wanna get pushed around
Reiterating a refusal to be controlled
I'm feeling like my friends don't like me like the next guy
Repeating feelings of social disconnection
I can't even come close, falling by the wayside
Continued sense of exclusion
Tryna figure out who I am
Continuing the search for self-identity
And if anyone's on my side
Questioning allegiance of others
But no one's on my side
Reiteration of feeling unsupported
Then again, fair-weather friends
Observing fair-weather friendships
People just put me where they want
Highlighting manipulation by others
And then use me accordingly
Reflecting on being used
So for now, 'til I'm buried downtown
Temporary resolution until death
Maybe I don't wanna get pushed around, yeah
Asserting a refusal to be controlled
But I got no one on my side
Expressing a lack of support
I got no one on my side
Reiteration of lacking support
I got no one on my side
-I got no one on my side
-But maybe I'm an asshole, maybe I'm a faker
Revisiting self-reflection on personal traits
Maybe I'm too bashful but I can't seem to shake the
Reiterating uncertainty or self-doubt
Feeling that my friends ain't with me past the Great Lakes
Expressing doubt about friends beyond a certain point
Back me up for fuck's sake, I'm begging
Pleading for support
But maybe I'm an asshole, maybe I'm a faker
Revisiting self-reflection on personal traits
Maybe I'm too bashful but I can't seem to shake the
Reiterating uncertainty or self-doubt
Feeling that my friends ain't with me past the Great Lakes
Expressing doubt about friends beyond a certain point
Back me up for fuck's sake, I'm begging
Pleading for support
