Lyrics

I can't fall asleep

I'm having trouble falling asleep.

Because I heard the things you said last week and no I don't wanna text back

I'm bothered by what you said last week, and I don't want to respond to your messages.

Cos there's never any use in that

Responding seems pointless.

I wanna touch the sky but I got ties upon my wrist

I aspire for something greater (touch the sky), but I feel restrained (ties upon my wrist).

That grip so tight

The restraint feels suffocating.

Please help me from the pitch black

I'm pleading for help to escape a dark situation.

Fuck I miss having a clear head

I miss having mental clarity.


You're not meant for me
I'm not meant for you

We're not right for each other.

But I'm hoping that I'm better than your next dude

I hope I'm a better choice than your next partner.

And I don't care if that upsets you

My feelings about this don't concern me.

Cos now I can see
All you do is use

I've realized you only use people.

So I'm taking back the songs I wrote about you

I'm retracting the songs I wrote about you.

I really wish I never met you

I regret meeting you.


I've been lying to my friends

I've been dishonest with my friends.

To get them off of my back

I lied to them to avoid their concern.

I know they mean well

I acknowledge their good intentions.

But I don't wanna hear that

I don't want to hear their advice.

I'm just a cynical piece of shit

I'm deeply pessimistic about myself.

A storyboard for a pessimist

I see myself as a narrative for pessimism.


And I don't get why you pretend

I don't understand why you fake your relationships.

That everyone you know is your like biggest fucking friend

You act like everyone is your close friend when you're critical of them.

Cos I can count on 2 Hands all the times you hate on them

You frequently criticize others, despite pretending otherwise.

But then you're sending hearts emojis into their dm's

You send affectionate messages to them despite your criticism.


Guess I'm back where I belong

I feel like I'm in my familiar unhappy place.

Left here scrolling through my phone

I'm aimlessly scrolling through my phone again.

Lock me up cos there's no solace in my headspace now at all

I'm feeling utterly lost and distressed in my mind.

Guess I'm back where I belong

I'm back in a familiar emotional state.

Push me right into a hole

I feel pushed into a deeply negative place.

Filled with concrete cause I never want to see your face at all

I want to avoid seeing you entirely.
