I woke up today
Exactly the same
That’s not so great
I hate feeling this way
I can’t move
Rooted to this spot
I couldn’t leave
If I wanted to or not
I don’t feel like doing anything today
I don’t feel like doing anything
I woke up today
Stuck in this space
Trapped in a place
I don’t want to face
Weighed down
Rooted to this spot
I couldn’t overcome it
If I wanted to or not
I don’t feel like doing anything today
I don’t feel like doing anything
Weighed down
Weighed down inside
Weighed down
Weighed down inside
I don’t feel like doing anything today
I don’t feel like doing anything
I don’t feel like doing anything today
I don’t feel like doing anything

Fakin' It
02:56
|
|||
|
Feel like a fake person
An imposter to be shunned
Failing to be normal
Failing to be someone
Navigating through life
Without knowing left or right
Spectator on the edges
Trying to figure out my messes
(There’s nowhere to hide)
I’m fakin’ it
Until I’m makin’ it
Or breakin’ it
I can’t keep takin’ it
Feel like a fake person
Waiting to be found
A great conspiracy
The house of cards comes crumbling down
It feels so dangerous
Just this existence
Trying to find a way to be
That I’m comfortable with me
(There’s nowhere to hide)
Pretending
Reacting
Deflecting
Overcompensating
The play goes on and on
It just goes on and on

Stargazing
03:29
|

Do you ever find yourself stargazing?
The majesty of the Universe is amazing
I see them twinkling
So far away but still amazing
I can’t help but feel
Something so perfect can’t be real
Is there something out there?
Something better than this?
Imagine all the wonders
That we don’t know exist
I reach up to the sky
Wishing I could fly
Amongst the stars
Somewhere far from here
I look up at the breathtaking sky
Nothing has ever felt this right
And I can’t help but dream
Of the stories to be told
And all we’ll come to know
As the Universe unfolds
Is there someone out there?
Looking at them too
Dreaming of a better life
In the night sky
I look up to the sky
Eyes so wide
Taking it all in
Feel the wonder within

I read your message the other day
Took some time to figure out what to say
So overwhelmed in the moment
I’m sorry I forgot it
Left you on ‘read’
Feel like a terrible friend
Too many things happening at once
My brain can’t handle the conflicting signals
I just wanted to say
I’m sorry again
This won’t be the last time
Something goes and slips my mind
It doesn’t mean I don’t care
It’s just the bandwidth isn’t there
Tomorrow might be a better day
For all the things I want to say
Don’t hear the phone cause it’s on silent
A sudden ringtone sends anxiety wild
You might think I’m hiding C
But I’m in here surviving
Don’t you go away
I’ve got things to say
And there will come a day
When I can be ‘me’ again

I Quit
02:54

I’m done with this
I’m going back to bed
Try again tomorrow
Don’t wake me until then
I’m done with this
I quit
I’m sick of this
I quit
I’m done with today
I’m going back to bed
Sleep until tomorrow
Don’t wake me until then
I’m done with this
I quit
I’m sick of this
I quit
I give up
I give in
I’m sick of this
I quit
I’m done with this
I quit
I’m sick of this
I quit

Love/Hate
02:58
|
|||
|
I stay the same
You want change
I change
It’s not the same
I try to give
No way to win
Destined to lose
No matter what I do
No one loves me like you do
No one hates me like you do
A fine line between the two
There’s no one like you
Try something new
But you want old
Return to form
It’s not enough
On your terms
In your own worlds
Destined to lose
No matter what I do
A fine line
Can turn on a dime
Rollercoaster of ups and downs
Always letting someone down

Lost In Space
02:54
|
|||
|
Here sharing pieces of me
Devoid of any company
All alone; on my own
Without a place to call home
Screaming into the void
Screaming until I lose my voice
There’s no one in this place
Lost in space
Orbits have shifted
Mass exodus and I missed it
Sometimes I feel I'll never find home
Travelling round the Sun alone
Screaming into the void
Screaming until I lose my voice
There’s no one in this place
Lost in space
I don’t want to be alone
Alone with myself
I can’t take the silence
We were just passing ships
Nothing more would come of this
Now I have to come to grips
With the words that left my lips
Screaming into the void
Screaming until I lose my voice
There’s no one in this place
Lost in space

Somebody I Used To Know
03:27

I remember the days
When I would feel amazed
Inspired and delighted
The path was exciting
Where did those days go?
I just don’t know
I’m looking for somebody that I used to know
A long time ago
Where did they go?
I’m looking for somebody
Somebody that I used to know
I remember the dreams
Of all I could be
That lively spark
That set me apart
Where did those days go?
I just don’t know
Settled somewhere along the way
Got so comfortable in the day to day
All the went away
Now I find myself stuck in a place
Trying to remember who I used to be
Trying to remember what made me ‘me’

My Worth
03:17
|
|||
|
I am not an object
I am not a thing
I am not a commodity
A point for you to win
I am a person
I don’t care about opinions
I know my value and my worth
I don’t belong in your box
Nor your pigeonhole
I don’t fit your labels
Nor you imagined role
I am a person
I don’t care about opinions
I know my value and my worth
I’m not here for you
I’m not here to please you
I don’t need your approval
I don’t need your gaze
I don’t care what you want
Nor for the things that you say
I am a person
I don’t care about opinions
I know my value and my worth
I don’t care about opinions
I know my value and my worth

Beat your drum
Sing out loud
Make a noise
Dance around
Little girl, little girl
Get up and take on the world
You can be anything you want to be
Make everyone see
The whole world is waiting for you
For all the things you’re gonna do
Make this place your own
Oh, our little hope
The world is waiting
You’re gonna be amazing
So make this place your own
Our little hope
Stomp and shout
Let it all out
Roar ‘til your throat is sore
Little girl, little girl
Get up and take on the world
You can be anything you want to be
Make everyone see
The whole world is waiting for you
For all the things you’re gonna do
Make this place your own
Oh, our little hope
The world is waiting
You’re gonna be amazing
So make this place your own
Our little hope
I see you
I hear you
I know you
I love you
The whole world is waiting for you
For all the things you’re gonna do
Make this place your own
Oh, our little hope
The world is waiting
You’re gonna be amazing
So make this place your own
Our little hope

After The Rain
03:02
|

|
It can’t rain all the time
Afterwards comes the sunshine
That’s when you get rainbows in the sky
A beautiful sight
It’s gonna be okay
When the clouds go away
After the rain
When the rain goes
And the soils soaked
That’s when the flowers grow
Bringing beauty to the world
It’s been storming for a while
But in the distance is blue skies
After a little while
We’re gonna have clear skies
