zinnia Lyrics

Twenty now, this isn't how I thought it would work out

Breaking vows, might take a bow

Because I'm tired of feeling down

Put all of my anger into a microphone

It's no one's fault but my own, please just let me be alone

All my friends they were plastic, and I was silicone

Fit into molds, now watch me grow

I won't see it through to twenty-two

I thought I had nothing to lose

Maybe views, or my muse

I hope these thoughts had a chance to defuse

But it's looking like I might just have to give it up

Stay at the bottom while all of my friends, they live it up

I've got potential, I guess I just gotta pick it up

I'm getting up, I've had enough, yeah

Falling out of touch with who I am

Revolving, my mind's a door, it's turning, am I deserving

Stalling all the opportunities I have to hear them applauding

That's all that I want, but I'm so exhausted

I've been so exhausted

I feel like a hostage and my brain I've lost it

Wilt away, watch my friends blossom

Sun don't shine upon me

Petals, they're all falling

In my head, it's daunting being left behind in the dawning

The sun never gon' shine when I'm stuck all alone

The stars won't align when I'm left in the cold

My thoughts are benign but they're taking a toll

The sun won't shine when I'm stuck alone

The stars won't align when I'm left in the cold

A flower dead in the night, out of sight, decomposed
