lyrics

drawin on my hand with a ballpoint pen
pickin a fight on the internet
microwave stops and I stay in bed
told myself to work but scroll instead
lookin up factoids on my phone
when i look up I'm all alone
I think I need to get a chaperone

You're going the wrong way
down a bike lane
you don't think twice, don't compare with anybody else
I'm stuck in my mind games, stalled out in the driveway
making excuses for myself

All of my friends got record deals,
my therapist asks me how I feel
Been a little busy gotta feed the cat
I'm a little bitter but I don't say that
blaming my frustrations on
things I can't change and tik tok
every day I get a little deeper in my thoughts

You're going the wrong way
down a bike lane
you don't think twice, don't compare with anybody else
I'm stuck in my mind games, stalled out in the driveway
making excuses for myself

I’ve been single for 6 months - almost the longest I’ve ever gone- and it’s low key amazing I can do whatever I want. ... more
