Candle-Lit and Nervous Lyrics

I've been feeling hopeless

Candle-lit & nervous

Like a movie scene but not so glamorous

Still don't have a purpose

Main Character Motive

Just out of our teens and never growing up

Yeah my voice ain't broke and I still can't tie my shoes

And my grandparents are still watching the BBC News

And my phone it hasn't died because it's bigger than you

And I'm not terrified that this planet could really die

And my first thought wasn't "hey man can i have your wi-fi?"

It was taking off my shoes cos well now that's just polite

I've been feeling hopeless

Candle-lit & nervous

Like a movie scene but not so glamorous

Still don't have a purpose

Main Character Motive

Just out of our teens and never growing up

Die for our perspective

While being deflective

Still believe in memes more than our own government

Kinda love that's hopeless

Can't tie down emotions

Just out of our teens and never growing up

And I've been 'rocking kicks' like it's still 2006

And I've been singing tik tok rather than scrolling on it

And now my dream girl can take me to an MCR Gig

I'm not saying that I'm not a modernist I just like

To reminisce and take the piss,

Chill out and look at some vines

Maybe instead of drinking lean we could just sip on some wine

I've been feeling hopeless

Candle-lit & nervous

Like a movie scene but not so glamorous

Still don't have a purpose

Main Character Motive

Just out of our teens and never growing up

Die for our perspective

While being deflective

Still believe in memes more than our own government

Kinda love that's hopeless

Can't tie down emotions

Just out of our teens and never growing up

Just wanna go to bed

You really should have said

Just wanna go to bed

You really should have said

Just wanna go to bed

You really should have said
