Boring
03:04

Already feel like Iām getting too old to waste all of my time
Canāt face the guilt when I know half my lifeās not even mine to decide
But when youāve already spent your day doing whatever your boss has to say
It can be hard to have the motivation to do something just for me
Sometimes I want to be boring but I hate letting myself down
Should write a song or be drawing but I just wanna go lie down
I know that I should be productive
But I canāt force myself to feel it
When I donāt feel it
Sit at my desk job watching the clock and counting the hours go by
Daydream of all the millions of things I could do if I just had the time
But when youāve already had enough of never doing the things that you love
It canāt be hard to improve yourself when everything else is so tough
Iāve got too much on my plate to waste my evening plans
Iāve got too much on my plate to waste the time I have

Best Friend
02:46

Thereās no point in me putting my heart on the line
When youāve gone from a person who was there for me to just some guy
I never wanted to fall out or fall out of touch
But Iām guessing that those 60 miles were just too much
It no longer breaks my heart
Anybody else could see that weāve been drifting apart
Best friend is a concept rather than a contract
And if you never try youāll obviously lose contact
And Iām not sad about that
Maybe in the future we could grow close again
Itās not like thereās been an argument I just no longer feel like youāre my friend
I know you feel like youāve been trying, I know lifeās been rough
Itās not that I donāt love you, I just donāt see you enough
To feel like you are close to me, we never even talk
Stopped kidding myself, donāt want to do that anymore
Je te vois presque jamais

Comparison Will Kill You
03:04
|

Iām not the best, but I donāt have to be
But when Iām scrolling through my phone
Comparing their work to my own itās not a healthy place to be
Itās a fucking bad habit but to stop it isnāt easy
Yeah I wouldnāt recommend it but stop it isnāt easy
Iām learning to appreciate the things that I see
They say comparison will kill you and itās been killing me
Iām just trying to create what makes me happy
Donāt need your constant validation I can just be how I wanna be
I try so hard to do things for myself
Sometimes I dunno where to start and it breaks my little heart
When I feel like Iām too slow
When the point is that you love it then you might as well give it a go
But in a sea of greater talent itās so easy to get lost though
I know that Iām fine, know Iām fine in real life
But when I think of, think of what I dream of, it starts to cloud my mind
But I guess if they can do it so can I

Creative Type
03:33

All my life Iāve made excuses for my shit behaviour
My head is in the clouds, I canāt be blamed Iām cute and so you let it slide
Most of the people I knew were the same anyway
I only left you waiting for half an hour, come on you know I tried
Fuck it itās alright cos I am only the creative type
So I donāt have to try
Funny how Iāve got no patience now for taking other peopleās shit
I guess cos I know now if can change, then they can also get over it
Iām a natural mess and I donāt always see the things that I should do
But Iām trying now and I wanna prove, wanna show that I respect you
I canāt quite believe how easy is it to get by
By saying itās not my fault, Iāve just got a creative mind
Flaking like the paint that Iāve left you to watch dry
Itās not my fault you can blame me Iām just the arty kind

Expectations
03:43

My mum and dad and they were only nineteen
And so did my mumās mum and her mum
Now Iām numb to following this ritual, stupid routine
When I was still a kid being brainwashed by another generationās dream
When I was young I drew pictures in all of my books of nuclear families
and everywhere I looked I was led to believe
that that was how my life was supposed to be
And when I think back through toys I had in the 90s
That plastic shit, each fucking doll teaching girls to bring up families
Your bullshit expectations are boring to me now
Oh honey donāt you roll your eyes and say Iāll change my mind
when I grow up some more and Iāve settled down
Iāve had the same conversation about 100 times
And youāll say Iāll feel differently I just havenāt met āthe oneā
Well what the fuck does that mean? You donāt know me
I think this conversationās done
I donāt have to live the way our parents did
I think Iāve had about enough of all these expectations
I donāt give a fuck about the choices that you make
Just donāt expect for me to fake an interest or to do the same
