Better Than Ever

Iāve been doing fine
Iāve been living my best life
And I feel like Iām on the right tracks
And Iāve been getting by
Iām not saying Iāll stop trying
Cos Iāve still got a long way to go but
Iām 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 thereās no way that Iām alone in
Feeling like I donāt appreciate myself
We should give credit when we know weāve earned it
And I am sick and tired of never cutting myself any slack
Iām going to pat myself on the back, blow my own horn
What are you gonna do about that?

I am alone in what I think and I feel estranged from people my age
And what did I do to deserve it Iāve got an opinion and I earned it
As much as anybody else
Iām not saying youāre 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 youāre mean
Donāt think that anyone has been so kind to me
In a room full of people I feel alone
Youāre the only other sane person I know
Spent my whole life planning my perfect wedding
Bridesmaids, flowers, every detail down to a T
Please donāt stop me if Iām boring you
Cos Iāve got nothing else to look forward to
Youāre only one
Youāre the only person

Carry Me
02:23
|

I hadnāt felt like I was home since I was 13 years old
But now I almost feel like this is mine, but Iām no longer a child
So I need to try, I cant just get by with you picking up the slack
Oh youāre not my dad and it isnāt right. You already do enough
I donāt want you to have to carry me
You must be thinking āLittle baby youāre driving me crazy and Iāve had enough because youāre supposed to be an adult.
When will you grow up? Yeah, of course, itās tough
Just the same as for the rest of us.ā

Apathy
03:12
|
|||
You are told to work for āthemā
Never given any other choice
Always told you should put your head down
Never raise your voice
Iāve been told that it feels good to work for yourself
Instead of slaving away to add to someone elseās wealth
Is this even worthwhile or am I wasting my time?
Should I just focus on myself?
I donāt 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 Iām 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
Iām entirely dependent and is it worth it?
Sure I love the security
But is that all thereās meant to be?

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
Iām 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 donāt read enough I know the faultās all mine
And this conversationās going over my head... again
I donāt want to let myself down
Donāt wanna be a stupid girl, donāt want to be patronised
Is that not motivation to sort myself out then?
Iām not saying that itās the answer to bury your head in the sand
But it just feels so much nicer to not have to understand sometimes

Personal Hell
02:25
|
|||
When will it end? Am I losing my mind?
Feels like Iāve been stuck here for all of my life
Itās a conveyer belt of the same old faces that smile and say hi
Each day discuss the weather and what weāre having for dinner just got to last until five
And itās all the same on repeat so on forever after
āTil 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 Iām stuck on keeps on getting duller every day
And itās all the same on repeat so on forever after
'Til the day where it all ends in natural disaster
Iāll be here in here in this personal hell of my own design
But complaining wonāt help, so guess itās all fine...
