Real Person

(앨범: The Whole Sun Balancing Upon My Knees - 2022)

You asked me to come here
Sit in a cold bar
She's a menace
She's a superstar
Aren't we the anti-heroes
That we're all afraid to talk about
Does that freak you out

I wanna feel like a real person
To you and everyone else in the world
I feel like I'm on the nightly news as
The lonely, not-so-genius girl
And none of my friends ever tell me
They watch me age
And they all speed up
I got a feeling this is all a part of it
I have a feeling this is how you'd write it
I wanna feel like a real person

You asked me to come here
Meet somewhere in between
She is selfish
She's a fever dream
Aren't we the villains
That we're so ashamed to write about
Does that freak you out

I wanna feel like a real person
To you and everyone else in the world
I feel like I'm on the nightly news as
The lonely, not-so-genius girl
And none of my friends ever tell me
They watch me age
And they all speed up
I got a feeling this is all a part of it
I have a feeling this is how you'd write it
I wanna feel like a real person

And you can't look me in the eye this time
A couple blocks and a bottle of cheap wine
Yeah, I am different
'Cause I waited for a sign
The psychic said that I wanna feel alive

I wanna feel like a real person
To you and everyone else in the world
I feel like I'm on the nightly news as
The lonely, not-so-genius girl
And none of my friends ever tell me
They watch me age
And they all speed up
I got a feeling this is all a part of it
I have a feeling this is how you'd write it
If only you'd ever really write
I know that we can be a bit obsessive
I wanna feel like a real person
