Iā€™ve been doing fine Iā€™ve been living my best life And I feel like Iā€™m on the right tracks And Iā€™ve been getting by Iā€™m not saying Iā€™ll stop trying Cos Iā€™ve still got a long way to go but Iā€™m better than ever Oh why is it built into my bones That I should not congratulate myself? Not even recognise when I deserve it? You know thereā€™s no way that Iā€™m alone in Feeling like I donā€™t appreciate myself We should give credit when we know weā€™ve earned it And I am sick and tired of never cutting myself any slack Iā€™m going to pat myself on the back, blow my own horn What are you gonna do about that?
2.
I am alone in what I think and I feel estranged from people my age And what did I do to deserve it Iā€™ve got an opinion and I earned it As much as anybody else Iā€™m not saying youā€™re wrong, but did you ever ask yourself Why this is what you crave? Do you really want it? Or are you just another slave? I never mean it when I tell you youā€™re mean Donā€™t think that anyone has been so kind to me In a room full of people I feel alone Youā€™re the only other sane person I know Spent my whole life planning my perfect wedding Bridesmaids, flowers, every detail down to a T Please donā€™t stop me if Iā€™m boring you Cos Iā€™ve got nothing else to look forward to Youā€™re only one Youā€™re the only person

Carry Me 02:23
I hadnā€™t felt like I was home since I was 13 years old But now I almost feel like this is mine, but Iā€™m no longer a child So I need to try, I cant just get by with you picking up the slack Oh youā€™re not my dad and it isnā€™t right. You already do enough I donā€™t want you to have to carry me You must be thinking ā€œLittle baby youā€™re driving me crazy and Iā€™ve had enough because youā€™re supposed to be an adult. When will you grow up? Yeah, of course, itā€™s tough Just the same as for the rest of us.ā€

Apathy 03:12
You are told to work for ā€˜themā€™ Never given any other choice Always told you should put your head down Never raise your voice Iā€™ve been told that it feels good to work for yourself Instead of slaving away to add to someone elseā€™s wealth Is this even worthwhile or am I wasting my time? Should I just focus on myself? I donā€™t wanna do what they tell me Just so I can pay my bills All I feel is apathy I never signed up for this Maybe Iā€™m always complaining, but it feels pretty rough To work away most of your life without gaining much You can keep putting money in my pocket Iā€™m entirely dependent and is it worth it? Sure I love the security But is that all thereā€™s meant to be?
5.
Bubble 03:23
When I read the news I just get upset Or I feel confused and then I get depressed Get overwhelmed by all of it Should I suffer through and take it all onboard? Even though I feel better with it being ignored? I guess that ignorance is bliss Iā€™m happy in my bubble but I feel so dumb I wanna close my eyes and cover up my ears It feels so good being numb I feel stupid a lot of the time Maybe I donā€™t read enough I know the faultā€™s all mine And this conversationā€™s going over my head... again I donā€™t want to let myself down Donā€™t wanna be a stupid girl, donā€™t want to be patronised Is that not motivation to sort myself out then? Iā€™m not saying that itā€™s the answer to bury your head in the sand But it just feels so much nicer to not have to understand sometimes
6.
When will it end? Am I losing my mind? Feels like Iā€™ve been stuck here for all of my life Itā€™s a conveyer belt of the same old faces that smile and say hi Each day discuss the weather and what weā€™re having for dinner just got to last until five And itā€™s all the same on repeat so on forever after ā€˜Til the day where it all ends in natural disaster Chained to my desk for the rest of my life just like everybody else Until I rescue myself One day I hope that maybe I can move on Not keep working until my whole life is gone Sit on the bus and wonder if everyone already feels the same way This hamster wheel Iā€™m stuck on keeps on getting duller every day And itā€™s all the same on repeat so on forever after 'Til the day where it all ends in natural disaster Iā€™ll be here in here in this personal hell of my own design But complaining wonā€™t help, so guess itā€™s all fine...
