why do i feel this way? 03:20
lyrics
buy track
It’s so hard to not judge myself against Everyone Because I’m constantly asking myself Why are they more successful? I guess I’m just insecure I feel like I bring nothing to the board I’m tired of lacking I’m tired of always asking Why do I feel this way? Why can’t I ever be sane? we shouldn’t compete cause women should build themselves up in everything I can’t stop my feelings From being envious of you My heart is confused It’s been five months I’m going strong This FOMO stays with me for long I hate seeing your posts on the web Because you’re always with him I wish we could just be friends Maybe it’d remedy this I swear I’m better without it, I’m just bitter about it I can’t let it go Why do I feel this way? Why can’t I ever be sane? we shouldn’t compete cause women should build themselves up in everything I can’t stop my feelings From being envious of you I want to feel like I’m good enough Why do I feel this way? Why do I need validation? To feel like a person Maybe this is why all my friends Have stopped responding to my texts They left me on read And now I’m more a ghost than a person Why do I feel this way? I’m tired of being tired Laying in bed staring up at the ceiling Wondering when my fingers lost feeling I can’t stop my feelings From being envious of you My heart needs a truce My emotions are bruised

standing, waiting 03:51
lyrics

Born the oldest in the family All the pressure fell onto me To be an example for everyone Diagnosed ADD too late Can’t pay attention these days Feeling burned out like a match Here I am waiting for life to notice All the pain all the bruises the focus How hard it is to keep things straight Now I’m standing, waiting You’re left praying to your daughters (!!!!!!!!) Begging them to fix their fathers It shouldn’t be their problem Go and hide in the bathroom How can you lead if you unravel What are emotions worth? Here I am waiting for life to notice All the pain all the bruises the focus How hard it is to keep things straight Now I’m standing, waiting Don’t forget me when you’ve already left Don’t forget all those burnt, gifted kids Wishing there was someone with them When they walk behind on the sidewalk Don’t forget us when you’re all alone Sitting, staring at your mobile phone Come back, be with us When we’re at the corner alone Here I am waiting for life to notice All the pain all the bruises the focus How hard it is to keep things straight Now I’m standing, waiting

I call you Peter Parker ‘Cause you’re cute and smart And I can’t help it Cause you’re everything I’m not I couldn’t be MJ Such ferocity She could save the day Never people please I need to see that I can be Something akin to my dreams Swinging in and lovingly Helping everyone that you meet You are everything to me Been there since I was 17 Made me learn that it’s okay To love yourself every single day You understand my antics Never did judge me for them Respect all passions Even encourage them I need to see that I can be Something akin to my dreams Swinging in and lovingly Helping everyone that you meet You are everything to me Been there since I was 17 Made me learn that it’s okay To love yourself every single day (Hey oh, hey oh) (Hey oh, hey oh) (Hey oh, hey oh) (Hey oh, hey oh) Swinging in and lovingly Helping everyone that you meet You are everything to me Been there since I was 17 Made me learn that it’s okay To not be perfect and love yourself anyway

the end (morning after) 04:38
lyrics

Had a terror the other night That I had lost my rights Then I woke up and realized it was real The end of days have finally come The sky is painted red and some Fools in Congress believe they know more Where do I run to now? How do we get out? Spent my years in high school Protesting things made by fools Spent my years in high school Protesting things made by fools Hoping that I could have a future Instead, my body is not mine Having a kid is not my right I pity those who don’t have the time Where do I run to now? How do we get out? I am fortunate to live in A place with other kin I don’t want to be here anymore How can I live knowing they are bored with me? I feel afraid for everyone Therapy can’t coax this at all I know this is the end I know this is the end History will implode We can’t fix the damage done Climate change, roe v. Wade, I am scared of everything I will take up arms Revolution 2.0 I will fight for our rights Because I know this is the end This is the end (Get me out, get me out) This is the end (Get me out, get me out)
