Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Getting recognition for all the stupid things I've done
Use the same excuse and say "at least I had some fun"
Falling out with family 'cause they say you were the one
Run myself a bath and ignore everyone
[PreChorus]
Bring me belief, the world went and changed
And then it switched scenes
Used to have all of this passion
Decided it's out of fashion to be me
[Chorus]
Baby, I live with self-deprecation
Not a nice word to use but it's true
I get distracted and ignore the importance of it
Maybe I love the way that I'm feeling
And that's the reason for why I don't try
Just get distracted and ignore all the things I should do
[Verse 2]
Maybe if I mark the date on my calendar in red
It'll be the time that things finally make sense
People will treat me like when I was thirteen
Still had my innocence, and life wasn't so mean (Wasn't so mean)
[PreChorus]
Bring me belief, the world went and changed
And then it switched scenes
Used to have all of this passion
Decided it's out of fashion to be me
[Chorus]
Baby, I live with self-deprecation
Not a nice word to use but it's true
I get distracted and ignore the importance of it
Maybe I love the way that I'm feeling
And that's the reason for why I don't try
Just get distracted and ignore all the things I should do
[Bridge]
Sure, I'm sad she didn't make it
But I'm glad I didn't fake it any longer than I had to
And through all my different phases
My feelings and my faces have learned to let go of you
[Chorus]
Baby, I live with self-deprecation
Not a nice word to use but it's true
I get distracted and ignore the importance of it
Maybe I love the way that I'm feeling
And that's the reason for why I don't try
Just get distracted and ignore all the things I should do
