Aristocrats

(album: Andy - 2020)

Sometimes I don't recognise my mind
Sometimes I wonder if it's yours or mine
I never saw you cry
And I wonder if that's why

Sometimes got a skip in my step
And a drink on my breath
This cigarette and I hope that's all you left

I don't even know if I know my own mind
I don't even know if I'm on my own time
I don't even know if I know what's right for me, yeah
I don't even want a patch on my jacket
I don't wanna move another tax bracket
I don't wanna be a part of my family tree
I don't wanna turn my back
But I don't want a part of that
In the aristocracy

Sometimes I don't hold my rank
And most times I got you to thank
Oh, you know you're why
There's energy in your tank
But I've got nothing left in mine

Sometimes I got a skip in my step
And a drink on my breath
And a cigarette and I hope that's all you left

I don't even know if I know my own mind
I don't even know if I'm on my own time
I don't even know if I know what's right for me, yeah
I don't even want a patch on my jacket
I don't wanna move another tax bracket
I don't wanna be a part of my family tree
I don't wanna turn my back
No, I don't want a part of that
In the aristocracy

Look, fuck it, I got Nicorette in my pocket
I've got memories I suppress, so there
I guess I'll just forget again
It's easier that way
I guess I've got calls to make and texts to ignore
Ain't life a bore when you're a mess? Anyway
I'm tongue-tied, brain fried
I've sacrificed my whole life
I don't think you realise but you are in my insides
My brain hurts and it ain't worth it
I'll keep hurting, I'll keep working
I'll go high when you go low
And I'll get by, you'll never know
My brain hurts and I'll keep working
And you're inside my, my mind
My whole life and I don't think you realise
But you are in my insides

I don't even know if I know my own mind
I don't even know if I'm on my own time
I don't even know if I know what's right for me, yeah
I don't even want a patch on my jacket
I don't wanna move another tax bracket
I don't wanna be a part of my family tree
I don't wanna turn my back
No, I don't want a part of that
In the aristocracy
