Happy 4th
Celebrating Independence from Expectations
Lyrics
My hair looks weird
Expressing self-consciousness or dissatisfaction with personal appearance.
My tan is smeared
Noting imperfections in a tan, possibly symbolizing a less-than-perfect image.
And not a friend in sight
Feeling alone without friends present.
My family's gone but I still call to tell them I'm alright
Despite family absence, maintaining communication to reassure them.
I risked it all, a beautiful new complicated life
Taking risks for a new and complex life.
Friendship breakups resulting in nothing to do tonight
Experiencing the aftermath of friendship breakups, resulting in boredom.
Happy Fourth of July
Wishing a happy Fourth of July despite personal struggles.
Feeling kinda lonely, I wont lie
Admitting a sense of loneliness on the Fourth of July.
But it's okay to cry
Encouraging acceptance of emotions, including the possibility of crying.
Feelings come and go so I'll be fine
Acknowledging the transient nature of feelings.
I'll be okay, I'll celebrate my time away from expectation
Celebrating independence from societal expectations.
I'll be okay I'll celebrate my time away today
Reiterating the celebration of personal freedom from expectations.
Episode after episode
Indulging in passive activities, possibly as a distraction.
I could do this all day long
Expressing a willingness to continue these activities indefinitely.
The house is clean
Describing a tidy living space.
The grass is green
Highlighting the pleasantness of the surroundings.
But I still miss my mom
Despite external order, missing the emotional support of a mother.
3 missed calls, a sports bra on
Noticing missed calls and casual attire, hinting at neglect of self-care.
But we all know I'm not working out
Acknowledging a lack of commitment to exercise.
I could text this new ex-friend if that's even still allowed
Contemplating reaching out to a former friend.
Happy Fourth of July
Repeating the Fourth of July greeting.
That could be a way to break the ice
Suggesting using the occasion to reconnect with the ex-friend.
And if they don't reply
Anticipating the possibility of no response.
Friendships come and go so I'll be fine
Acknowledging the transient nature of friendships.
I'll be okay, I'll celebrate my time away from expectation
Reiterating the celebration of personal freedom from expectations.
I'll be okay, I'll celebrate my time away today
Reaffirming the celebration of personal freedom on this day.
