Lyrics
I think I did just a little bit
I feel like I have achieved a small accomplishment
Alright for myself for just being a kid to you
I'm content with how I've handled things despite being young in your eyes
Writing sad songs, while I hear you screaming at me
While I express my emotions through sad songs, I hear you expressing frustration at me
"Do you have to be a sad boy?"
Questioning if it's necessary for me to be melancholic
I mean yeah, probably
Admitting that, yes, perhaps being sad is part of who I am
Half-good voices don't a lot of therapy
Having a partially good singing voice doesn't replace the need for therapy
Half-good people don't make a lot of enemies
Being partially good doesn't attract many enemies
Knowledge is a power but you don't know everything I wanted you to know
Knowledge is powerful, but you don't understand everything I want you to
Now I know I tend to get a bit complacent
Acknowledging my tendency to become too comfortable
And I'm thankful that you've given me your patience
Expressing gratitude for your patience despite my complacency
But I need to let you know that I'm scared of letting go
Confessing fear of letting go
Because I think that I've befriended all my demons
Believing I've made friends with my inner struggles
To overcompensate the way that I was treated
Compensating for past mistreatment by overdoing certain behaviors
I need to let you know that I'm scared of letting go
Reiterating fear of letting go
Should I leave it?
Contemplating whether to leave things as they are
Let a breathe a bit?
Considering taking a break or stepping back
Do I watch you as you jump to your conclusions
Observing as you quickly draw conclusions
Sorting useless information as I waste my time
Wasting time on irrelevant information
Cause I can't seem to get your judgment out my mind
Struggling to remove your judgment from my thoughts
You won't get loved if you don't stay memorable
Stating that being memorable is essential for receiving love
You can't get hurt if you don't get vulnerable
Suggesting that avoiding vulnerability prevents getting hurt
Deprecation is a virtue but you won't
Self-deprecation is a virtue, but unnecessary if I handle it independently
Need to give it if I do it on my own
Emphasizing independence in dealing with self-deprecation
Now I know I tend to get a bit complacent
Repeating the acknowledgment of my tendency to become too comfortable
And I'm thankful that you've given me your patience
Expressing gratitude again for your patience despite my complacency
But I need to let you know that I'm scared of letting go
Reiterating the fear of letting go
Because I think that I've befriended all my demons
Believing I've made friends with my inner struggles, repeating the theme
To overcompensate the way that I was treated
Compensating for past mistreatment through exaggerated actions, repeating the theme
I need to let you know that I'm scared of letting go
Reiterating the fear of letting go
Now I know I tend to get a bit complacent
Repeating the acknowledgment of my tendency to become too comfortable
And I'm thankful that you've given me your patience
Expressing gratitude again for your patience despite my complacency
But I need to let you know that I'm scared of letting go
Reiterating the fear of letting go
Because I think that I've befriended all my demons
Believing I've made friends with my inner struggles, repeating the theme
To overcompensate the way that I was treated
Compensating for past mistreatment through exaggerated actions, repeating the theme
I need to let you know that I'm scared of letting go (and I)
Reiterating the fear of letting go, with an added emphasis
Now I know I tend to get a bit complacent
Repeating the acknowledgment of my tendency to become too comfortable
And I'm thankful that you've given me your patience
Expressing gratitude again for your patience despite my complacency
But I need to let you know that I'm scared of letting go
Reiterating the fear of letting go
Because I think that I've befriended all my demons
Believing I've made friends with my inner struggles, repeating the theme
To overcompensate the way that I was treated
Compensating for past mistreatment through exaggerated actions, repeating the theme
I need to let you know that I'm scared of letting go
Reiterating the fear of letting go, emphasizing the need for communication
