me vs me vs all of y'all

(Album: Thanks, But No Thanks - 2023)

Wake yourself up
I'd listen back for hours
Disintegration by The Cure
Lullaby, Homesick, last song
Soundtrack to my time on tour

Quit my job took a flight
Call my girl, start a fight
Did my best Eddie Vedder
Then I buckle under pressure

Members come and members go
Town to town is all I know
Austin, Houston, El Paso
Adderall an espresso

But how do you sleep at night?
Try as hard as I might
Did my best Evan Dando
Where the fuck did the time go?

Throw your life away
Pick it up on another day
And I can't, I can't hear you
Throw your life away
Pick it up on another day
And I can't, I can't hear you
'Cause I can't hear you

Wake yourself up
It's not what I intended
No holidays or wedding vows
Cousins turned to teenagers
Send me back if you know how

Skim through all that they write
He didn't have it tonight
Please them all you could never
Bet it sticks with you forever

Throw your life away
Pick it up on another day
And I can't, I can't hear you
Throw your life away
Pick it up on another day
And I can't, I can't hear you
'Cause I can't hear you

It's not so glamorous
See your life through a camera lens
Add it up, anyone impressed?
Add it up till I'm laid to rest

It's not so glamorous
Looking back on the life I missed
Add it up, all the years of stress
Always told I was second best
I had to learn
I had to learn

(I had to learn, I had to... learn)
I had to learn, and I had to

And after all of these years
My blessing was actually a curse
And what is success other than a compassion
Me vs me vs all of y'all
