Doom & Gloom

(album: The Big Happy - 2021)

It's me, always worried 'bout the rules
Always what you think of me now too
But miss me with all the talk and posture
All the talk of how we've landed on the moon
And religion too
I'm fixing all the plumbing and the pipes
All the inner demon fights
All the rage

I'm listing all the things that I don't like
All the flaws and cellulite
All the things that I could find so wrong with me

I'm out here wishing
I could just risk it all
To bring me back to life
I don't know myself
A trophy on the shelf of
The things I never liked

I need a new tattoo to cover shit I hate about myself
Make up a story of how it means something to someone somewhere else
Barely hanging on, emotional and running and marathon
You can tell me that it's gonna be A-okay, but you don't know anything, let me say

I'm out here wishing
I could just risk it all
To bring me back to life
I don't know myself
A trophy on the shelf of
The things I never liked

Yeah
No, no

This ain't a song for you
Really not a song for you
I'm okay, it's just doom and gloom
I'm okay, not okay
This ain't a song for you
Really not a song for you
I'm okay, it's just doom and gloom
I'm okay, not okay
I'm okay, not okay

I'm out here wishing
I could just risk it all
To bring me back to life
I don't know myself
A trophy on the shelf of
The things I never liked
Yeah, yeah, yeah
The things I never liked
Yeah

This ain't a song for you
Really not a song for you
It's really not a song for you
'Cause it's just doom and gloom
I'm okay, not okay
Not okay
