Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Out on a ledge and looking for exits
Life is one long dragged-out death sentence
And my brain, it always goes to the worst-case scenarios
Staying just anxious enough to keep me on my toes
[Chorus]
What if I gave up control
Instead of getting caught up in all these hypotheticals?
Why am I putting my pain on a pedestal?
Don't wanna live for the worst-case scenario
[Verse 2]
I am the king of disaster prevention
Skeptical of every good intention
Oh, 'cause if I expect the worst, I'm staying ahead of the curve
And maybe then when it comes crashing down, I won't get hurt
[Chorus]
Maybe it's fine not to know
If I die, did I waste all my time being skeptical?
Why am I putting my pain on a pedestal?
Don't wanna live for the worst-case scenario
[Bridge]
Positive mantra, put it into action
Asking myself, what's the worst that can happen?
[Outro]
Once in a while, maybe I should
Try manifesting something good
And even if it doesn't pan out like I thought it would
I think it'd do me good
I think it'd do me good
I think it'd do me good
I think it'd do me good
