Teenage Misery
02:33
|
|||
today i wished the world away from inside my flat
and almost made an instagram account for my cat
i want to dance and strut
i want to pretend
that this week-old pizza hut
is not my oldest friend
but you know
with the sky falling down
in six months
we'll all live underground
and i think that's where i'll thrive
i've been training all my life
assuming i'm still alive
and there's at least a decent wi(-fi connection)
all this teenage misery
except i'm almost 23
but i complain and whine
only like half the time
yeah things are sort of fine
now that you are mine

Tyrant
03:16
|

it wasn't supposed to be this way
i thought we'd frolic, laugh and play
no
why do you stalk me
like i'm prey?
i treat you well
your food's gourmet
i thought i had the superior brain
i thought i was king
top of the food chain
and out of fear of being alone
i brought some chaos
into my home
and now oh god i miss the silence
i'm a hopeless slave to a furry tyrant
i dream of fleeing in the night
but i'm on my knees cleaning up your shite
before you
i was not an early riser
i wish it was legal
to feed you some form of tranquilliser
why do i endure all this pain
just to earn your disdain?
you're driving me insane
but i love you all the same

The Saddest Clown
03:00
|
|||
when all you really do is sleep all day
you find yourself with nothing interesting to say
oh boy your self loathing
shtick is wearing thin
it's time to reinvent
for the sake of content
oh we've heard it all before
being miserable's a bore
can't you start to learn parkour?
we expected so much more
you will never be pewdiepie
you'll exist and then you'll die
oh your life's been one long sigh
you've let the whole world pass you by
instagram your best frown
livestream a meltdown
you're the saddest clown around
you're the saddest clown in town
eat dinner in your dressing gown
if you sing it then it sounds profound
you're the saddest clown around
you're the saddest clown in town

Panic Attack
03:00
|

during a panic attack
at my local KFC
i'm comforted by the fact
that the wifi's free
so i can google
"what the fuck is wrong with me?"
why do i struggle
with things that should come so naturally?
oh how do you keep the fear away?
feel it rising in my throat every day
it's hard to explain you're not okay
without sounding like the worst tumblr cliche
some days there'll be rain
it won't always be the same
some days there'll be pain
but you'll be yourself again
late at night
i walk the streets alone
bathed in lamplight
miles away from home
i thought i'd find meaning in the night sky
but it's so damn cold and my phone's about to die
not sure if there's much beyond you and i
so let's just grow old and never ask why

Valentine's Day
03:52
|

Of course I'm aware that it's Valentines Day
Had plenty of time to work out how to say
That I like you the appropriate amount
And I usually don't mind having you around
I'll pretend to like the things you like
If that's what'll keep you by my side
You made me watch Frozen seven times
And I never once said what was on my mind
(That fucking snowman)
Your eyes are good eyes
Probably better than 90% of other eyes
Please stay away from better looking guys
Oh for you I'd consider beginning to exercise
(possibly)
You might ask why
I did not buy
You something nice online
I thought you'd like this song of mine
How dare you suggest I ran out of time
(No, I didn't)
(*cough*)
