about
This track is about the struggles of growing into adulthood, and learning through experience how to be a decent fucking person. The song incorporates inspiration from Hyperpop, trance, and early 00's RnB.
lyrics
I self reflect, I'm disappointed
That I've become somebody else
I've lost a lot of pride,
I'm a lie, I'm alive, but don't feel like I'm living
I'm stuck inside the walls of my mind all the time
I'm home but it just don't feel right
Wanna live a life, not a lie
I'm alive, think that I should start living
I'm in a quarter life crisis, looking for vices
Searching for something to fill in
the space that she left in my bedsheets
But I'll never trust them to stay
Cause I'm 24 and so afraid of dying
Hoping before I do I'll become something
I'm fighting the urge to go hollow,
I won't let it swallow my flame or my name
No, I've been ignorant to my own devices
I need rewarded for my sacrifices
I'm finding I'm better off lonely
So long, I'm getting lost
*music break*
I self reflect, I'm disappointed
That I've become somebody else
I've lost a lot of pride,
I'm a lie, I'm alive, but don't feel like I'm living
I'm stuck inside the walls of my mind all the time
I'm home but it just don't feel right
Wanna live a life, not a lie
I'm alive, think that I should start living
It took so long to realize that;
The only one who's stopping myself,
The only one who's got me is myself
And I hate that I don't know everything
I don't know everything
I don't know anything
