Another dumb song you can roll your eyes at
Another dive in my mind for the panic attacks
Another long night waiting for someone to react
Another conversation about where I lack
My compulsion
Your revulsion
Call it self care
Or self-indulgence
Too young to quit, too old to care
More medication down to deal with stress
More justification to get it off my chest
More evidence piling up to confess
More excuses "I'm trying my best"
Your revulsion
My overindulgence
Call it threadbare
Or self-important
Too young to quit, too old to care
I shouldn't feel this guilty
While they're reading my sentencing
Go ahead and throw the book at me
A felony for life of apathy
Too young too quit, too old too care

It's time to go
So you gotta let them know
You've got taste in deep lyrical metaphor
Use a song to tell the whole world
You're feeling sad or great but can't talk
I'm staring at your away message
You're so cool with the movie reference
I love that font
I love that color
You know there could be no other one
You're logging on
Mom wants to use the phone
So I gotta go
I'll be right back
In about an hour or so
Waiting for your screen name to show
I'm hoping I don't hear that door close
I'm staring at your away message
You're so cool with the movie reference
I love that font
I love that color
You know there could be no other one
You're logging on
I'm freaking out
Emo quotes and inside jokes
I'm in love though we never spoke
I'm staring at your away message
I feel cool I got that reference
I'm staring at your away message
You're so cool with the movie reference
I love that font
I love that color
You know there could be no other one

Side Hustle

Selling shit on Etsy that nobody buys
Working hard all day then blogging all night
You got that personal brand that's racking up likes
Record another video that starts "Hey Guys!"
'Cause your job doesn't pay and you hate it
Spending time on your hobby and you pray that you make it
Or you'll end up on Only Fans
Side Hustle
You got that Side Hustle, baby
You had word art that told you to believe in yourself
You called your dad asking for a little help
Asking everyone to share your post
A 24-year-old broke life coach
Charging friends on Venmo and you hate it
Rent's due and followers won't pay it
Moving in back to your parents'
Side Hustle
You got that Side Hustle, baby
HEY GUYS!
AMAZING NEWS!
SAVANNAH SOAKS BATH BOMBS IS GOING VIRAL!
GOOP LIKED ONE OF OUR POSTS AND SHARED IT TO THEIR STORY!

Girls Break You
02:33

|

Manipulate
You got me wrapped 'round your fingers
Hanging on every word
You never listen but you beg for attention
You're stubborn like your mom
Boys break things but
Girls break you
I don't know
What I'm gonna do
Cause I know it's so true
Girls break you
Frustrate
You got my feet on the edge
I'm pulling out my hair
You never listen but that smile's a weapon
With a face that can do no wrong
Boys break things but
Girls break you
I don't know
What I'm gonna do
Cause I know it's so true
Girls break you
Here comes trouble
Attitude on the double
Constant power struggle
The missing pieces to the puzzle
Boys break things but
Girls break you
You'll never know
What you two do
The push, the pull
You broke through
The push, the pull
I love you
Boys break things but
Girls break you
You'll never know
What you two do
The push, the pull
The push, the pull
You know I know I love you

I'd Kiss You
03:04

|

Once upon a time
The story of a hopeless guy
Who never saw the signs
And was afraid to try
Paralyzed and confused why
Then you said goodbye
I was so stupid
You were so perfect
That night in my car in 2002
But I was a loser
Timid and nervous
Thinking back now that I didn't deserve it
You were so cool
and I was just fat
Summer fun
I wish I could go back
Panic in my mind
Sending chills down my spine
I couldn't believe my eyes
A coward frozen in time
I kept my feelings inside
Now I can't leave you behind
I am so stupid
You were so perfect
Tonight in my car in 2022
I am a loser
Fixated on moments
Still thinking back on what could have been different
You were so cool
and I was just fat
Summer fun
I wish I could go back
'Cause I'd get a clue
I'd know what to do
I'd kiss you
I'd kiss you
And we'll stay out all night under the stars
Singing lines to all our favorite songs
"You're just jealous 'cause we're young and in love"
And never grow up 'cause the future don't want us
Never grow up 'cause the future don't want us
Mirror down
Lipstick on
It all went wrong
You were so cool
and I was just fat
Summer fun
I wish I could go back
'Cause I'd get a clue
I'd know what to do
I'd kiss you
I'd kiss you

Oh Cassie
You walk right past me
And it's so sad to see you breaking mentally
I know your dad's not around and your mom is a drunk
But you don't need to be with that manipulative hunk
You can chase him all day
But when you're tired running
I am here to stay
You're already perfect
You don't need to change
Oh Cassie
You look right past me
And it's so sad to see you spiraling daily
I know your friends are fake and its driving you crazy
But mania don't phase me
And what's the fun in behaving?
You can chase him all day
But when you're tired running
I am here to stay
You're already perfect
You don't need to change
You're fighting your demons
I won't let you be a villain
Cause I know you're a good person
You're the star of my play
I know it's fate
Let's run away
Don't worry, this is just the beginning
You can chase him all day
But when you're tired running
I am here to stay
You're already perfect
You don't need to change

Day Drinkin'

It's 12 o'clock somewhere
Grab me another beer
The sun is setting here
Catch a buzz
We're all having fun
Call a car to take us to the next bar
Dank and hazy
My Saturday is lazy
Watching the game touchdown
We going crazy
No hangover 'cause I'm already sober
Goodnight!
Can't be out late
In bed by 8
Day drinkin'
Yea we're old so you know we gotta go
Day Drinkin'
It's 12 o'clock somewhere
Kids are at daycare
I'm drunk in a lawn chair
Pull up I got a cooler to share
Don't worry, I ain't going nowhere
No hangover 'cause I'm already sober
Goodnight!
Can't be out late
In bed by 8
Day drinkin'
Yea we're old so you know we gotta go
Day Drinkin'
At the barbecue, I'm grabbing a beer
At the birthday party, I'm grabbing a beer
At the tasting room you know I'm drunk
At brunch you know I get fucked up
Can't be out late
In bed by 8
Day drinkin'
Yea we're old so you know we gotta go
Day Drinkin'

Adults Are Dumb
03:03
|
|

When I was a kid I thought my parents knew everything
Turns out like everyone they were just faking
When I was in school I thought my teachers had good intentions
When they really were just babysitters with pensions
We all feel lied to
Your broken promises
Our false hope
We suffer consequences
I never knew adults would be this dumb
So fucking dumb
I guess I'm not the only one
When I was young I thought that life would get better
But all we do is sit around online and argue together
Now that I'm old I'm trying hard to break the cycle
But I'm banging my head telling how to Google
We all feel cheated
Lost and defeated
Searching for meaning
Our fault is believing
I never knew adults would be this dumb
Go to school, get good grades
Find and job and you'll get paid
But all I got is depression and regret
Disappointment from things unsaid
It's leading me to second guess
The point of it all when they stack the deck
I never knew adults would be this dumb
So fucking dumb
I never knew
I guess I am an idiot too

Put up my profile with a dumb smile
Looking for a girl so I can walk 500 miles
It's been a while
In a drought like the Nile
Oh! She's cute, you too
This girl's got style
I swiped
You Liked
Can't believe it's happening tonight
I swiped
You Liked
Now we're getting together
In real life
You hit me up
We text back and forth
Made you laugh with a joke about Peter North
Spend an hour trying to pick out what to wear
Fix my hair
Check the mirror
OK PLAYA
I swiped
You liked
Can't believe it's happening tonight
I swiped
You Liked
Now we're getting together
In real life
Sent you pics
But not of my dick
Planning out something romantic
I swiped
You Liked
Now we're getting together
In real life
I was at the Olive Garden sitting all alone
I kept trying but you never answered the phone
I held out hope, hoping this was just a joke
On my 10th breadstick I gave up the ghost
I swiped
You Liked
Then you left me by myself tonight
Was it because I am to nice?
I swear I am the one you want in real life
In real life

It breaks my heart
To see you giving up
I know that you feel like you've had enough
You say you're tired
That you're so old
But there is just so much more left to go
Whatever you're looking for
You won't find it in your phone
Just look up
I'm here
You are not alone
It breaks my heart
To see you giving up
I know that you feel like you've had enough
You say you're tired
That you're so old
But there is just so much more
Whatever you're looking for
You won't find it in your phone
Just look up
I'm here
You are not alone
It breaks my heart
To see you waste your life
Resigned to think your best days are behind you
It's all in your mind though
And I'm hoping for a breakthrough
But you're stuck in the rearview
Wishing for a re-do
Whatever you think you need
You won't find it on a screen
I've been here
For years
I will never leave
I can't help you if you don't want to help yourself
Whatever you're looking for
You won't find it in your phone
Just look up
I'm here
You are not alone
The worst part is I don't think you know or care
I'm trying but you're not there
Don't disappear
