Lyrics

Nobody gives a fuck what I'm feeling

Nobody cares about my emotions as long as I present a cheerful facade for their amusement.

Long as I smile big for the jokes they tell

As long as I fake a big smile in response to their jokes, no one is interested in what I truly feel.

Wish I could take it to hell

I wish I could escape from this difficult situation.

And I'm drowning in a wishing well

I feel overwhelmed and trapped in a situation that seems impossible to escape, akin to drowning in a wishing well.

Tuesday feels so much the same

Tuesday seems mundane and repetitive.

Wednesday's gonna hurt as I swallow the pain

Anticipation that Wednesday will bring pain, and the act of swallowing emotional distress.

Is this inside of my brain

Questioning if these feelings are internal, within the mind.

Gotta be something I can blame

Searching for something external to blame for these emotions.

I wanna lead a fake life wanna smile more

Desire to live a fake life and show a happier persona to the world, wanting to smile more.

Kinda maybe sorta wanna quit being myself

Contemplating the possibility of quitting one's true self and identity.

Quit being myself quit being my

Repetition of the desire to quit being oneself, emphasizing the internal struggle.

Quit being myself quit being my

-

Trying to listen to my heart cus I know this is bad

Attempting to heed the inner voice and acknowledge the negative nature of the situation.

We should throw it all away

Advocating for discarding everything that contributes to the negative emotions.

Throw it all away

-

We should throw it all away

-

Throw it all away

-

Somebody said I'm fun when I'm drinking

Recognition that others find the person entertaining or enjoyable when under the influence of alcohol.

Trying my best to not overthink it now

Effort to avoid excessive thinking, but the internal struggles become too overwhelming.

But it's just getting too loud

The internal noise and emotional burden become too intense.

And I'm too tired anyhow

Feeling exhausted and lacking the energy to deal with the situation.

Failing to hide the things that I'm feeling

Failing to conceal genuine feelings from friends who may not perceive the true emotional state.

Maybe my friends don't think that I'm doing too well

Suspecting that friends might not think the person is doing well.

Feels like there's no one to tell

Feeling isolated with no one to confide in.

Still drowning in a wishing well

Despite efforts, still immersed in a difficult and unrelenting situation.

I wanna lead a fake life wanna smile more

Reiteration of the desire to lead a fake life and present a happier image to the world.

Kinda maybe sorta wanna quit being myself

Continued contemplation on quitting one's true self, emphasizing the internal struggle.

Quit being myself quit being my

-

Quit being myself quit being my

Reaffirmation of the internal conflict and the need to listen to one's heart despite the difficulty.

Trying to listen to my heart cus I know this is bad

-

We should throw it all away

Strong suggestion to discard everything contributing to negative emotions.

Throw it all away

-

We should throw it all away

-

Throw it all away

-

I wanna smile more

Expressing the desire to smile more, emphasizing the longing for a happier existence.

I wanna smile more

-

I wanna smile more

-

I just wanna smile

Yearning for genuine happiness and a sincere smile.
