Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Complicated, frustrated, underestimated
Can't sleep, mind racin', hard to stay concentrated
Foreign towns, missing home, please don't forget about me
Tell the story, all the glory, fuck what they say about me
[Verse 2]
Some days I feel
So out of place
With all these fake people
In my face, I can not relate, yeah
[Verse 3]
Sometimes I feel
Like I create and they just take
Everything I make
Turn around and then hate
[Verse 4]
Maybe I was livin' off expectations
Or I was born in the wrong generation
That's probably it
Meanwhile I'm crushin' weed overseas
Hopefully the night will find more
Long days on tour, backstage gettin' borin'
But step offstage and they roarin'
[Verse 5]
I fell in love with a very bad habit
But I feel alive for the very first time
[Verse 6]
I don't wanna die
But I don't
I don't wanna hide or keep shit inside
I will not cry
So I deal how I deal with it
Deal with it
[Verse 7]
I am thirteen, I was clean and still countin'
Save me from these daydreams about it
Under full moons, night swims and tattoos
I cannot stand these fucking rules
[Verse 8]
I've been sailing too long in cold water
Restrain me from these pills and more doctors
And erase me from this page and start over
I wanna start over
[Verse 9]
See, I fell in love with a very bad habit
But I was alive for the very first time
You said goodbye when I was trying to say
"Something ain't right inside of me"
[Verse 10]
I wanna run away, yeah (I want to run away, run away)
I don't wanna stay here (I don't wanna stay, I don't wanna stay here)
[Verse 11]
I wish you could relate
I wish upon a star
Fuck that, leave it up to fate
We are who we are so don't judge me
Just 'cause it's hard to smile
Read between thick white lines
See what's in my mind
[Verse 12]
I fell in love with a very bad habit
But I was alive for the very first time
You said goodbye when I was trying to say
"Something ain't right inside of me"
[Verse 13]
I wanna run away, yeah
I don't wanna stay here
