Taped

(album: The Beautiful Struggle - 2019)

Taped, taped, taped, taped
Taped, taped, taped

I know I've only existed
For 300,000 plus years
So I might not know it all, yeah
But I know my way around the streets
And the things in my brain, oh
Taped, taped, taped

Sometimes I feel less human
When I lock myself up
Record myself singing taped
Do you like the way I sound
When I'm down and I shut my thoughts up
Taped, taped, taped, taped

'Cause one time I told someone
He said, he said, he said
I wouldn't wanna have your mind
I said, I said, I said
I really, really don't mind
I bet that nobody
Wants to find what I find, hey

Another time I met someone
She said, she said, she said
I wouldn't wanna have your mind
She left, he left, they left
I really, really don't mind
I smile, I smile, I lie
I agree, I just need
Some relatability

I tend to overshare
Every time that someone cares, oh
The minute I shut up, I shut down
And I feel like a clown, oh
They're never funny

It's like I'm in the movie
Where I never got the part
I actually really wanted, yeah
So I live off the success of my head
Being messy, unimpressed, oh
Taped, taped, taped, taped
Taped, taped

'Cause one time I told someone
He said, he said, he said
I wouldn't wanna have your mind
I said, I said, I said
I really, really don't mind
I bet that nobody
Wants to find what I find, hey

Another time I met someone
She said, she said, she said
I wouldn't wanna have your mind
She left, he left, they left
I really, really don't mind
I smile, I smile, I lie
I agree, I just need
Some relatability

'Cause one time I told someone
She said, she said, she said
I wouldn't wanna have your mind
She left, he left, they left
I really, really don't mind
I smile, I smile, I lie
I agree, I just need
Some relatability
