Lyrics

Maybe it's the lockdowns
And all the time I spend at home
But all I wanna do now
Is waste my days on my own
Maybe I need a new dress
Maybe I need a new job
Maybe I need a new friend
To help me find my old spark
Cos God I'm feeling overwhelmed
Even though there's nothing going on
And it's getting harder to pretend
That I've still got the drive that they all know
Cos I left home young
And I grew up fast
I made myself one to watch
But I can't catch up
To the expectations
I learnt them from my elders
Then I grew them myself
Now I can't look in the mirror without seeing I'm not perfect
I just can't catch up
To the expectations
So I've never measured up
But I can't keep standing on my tippy toes
The bar is always moving up
Always faster than I can grow
So now I'm feeling overwhelmed
In this room all on my own
And it's getting so hard to pretend
I've got a clue I know where to go
Cos I left home young
And I grew up fast
I made myself one to watch
But I can't catch up
To the expectations
I learnt them from my elders
Then I grew them myself
Now I can't look in the mirror without seeing I'm not perfect
I just can't catch up
To the expectations
Yeah I wish I fit that dress
And yeah I wanna quit my job
And yeah I got no friends
Cos I pretend that I know what I want
Cos I left home young
And I grew up fast
I made myself one to watch
But I can't catch up
To the expectations
I learnt them from my elders
Then I grew them myself
Now I can't look in the mirror without seeing I'm not perfect
I just can't catch up
To the expectations
Maybe it's the lockdowns
And all the time I spend at home
But all I wanna do now
Is waste my days on my own
