Lyrics

Maybe this life ain't for me

When I'm too used to scraping the barrel

Imposter in myself, it seeps

Every clique makes me the resident sparrow

Tried and tested method

To be with them up there

But I guess it's not just me to save

For the ones back home it don't seem fair


The shivers I get every time I feel pain

Are the only thing grounding this body of mine

And I feel this burning in my eyes

Bright sensations of the sunlight

It seems like a way out

But I fall for it every time


What have I gotta do to get me out of this shit

It's been five whole years and not a thing has changed

Feels like I've got too many eyes on me

But no-ones watching at the same time

What have I gotta do to get back my happiness

I'm so sick and tired of listening to what she says

Is there a saving grace? One, where I don't have to die


Sure you knew everything

Left all your troubles at home all alone in a box

You really think that's all that you got

Tried to explain to my mom and my pops

But I'm late again for work so clearly it's all my problem

Place all your bets on my chance of success

Lace up my shoes put me through it again

The less you're letting me know

I'll carve the space out my own

And yeah, it's all cause of you

The reason I gotta prove


Your expectations drove me down to the floor

I've tried but you ask for more

Stuck sitting silently

I'm starting to believe you've got no way of remorse

Burn through my time abroad

Touchdown but still I find it odd

'Cause who needs me here

when the weather's much better up north

Done what I could to find what I find

All out of sight and all out of mind

A century of push and shove

Tethered to the sky above

I don't want your sympathy

Just remember me when the weight has caught up

Soon or just eventually, we'll be back in place

When the pain has washed off


What have I gotta do to get me out of this shit

It's been five whole years and not a thing has changed

Feels like I've got too many eyes on me

But no-ones watching at the same time

What have I gotta do to get back my happiness

I'm so sick and tired of listening to what she says

Is there a saving grace? One, where I don't have to die
