Lyrics

[Intro ]
I don't want to fantasize
Life ain’t giving paradise
Time has made me cynical
I'm a little bit stressed out
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
I'm a little bit stressed out
[Verse 1]
Yeah, I tried getting sober
Thought life was supposed to get easier
But nothing works like they told you
It's a vicious world
I could try to pretend
I surrender myself but I keep on falling
Tell myself it'll end
But it won't stop calling
I’d turn back time it’d be okay
Watch my troubles slip away
I see my ghosts coming on through
Am I overthinking now?
[Chorus]
I don't want to fantasize
Life ain’t giving paradise
Time has made me cynical
I'm a little bit stressed out
Every tear a battle cry
Lost my spark, I don't know why
Nothing helps to pacify
I'm a little bit stressed out
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
I'm a little bit stressed out
(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)
I'm a little bit stressed out
[Verse 2]
Running scared from my demons
I'm falling apart at the seams and screaming
Don't get too close 'cause
the world will drag you down
It's a damn vicious cycle
Every step is a fight to defeat those voices
Sound the alarm, let it ring
Tell the people our time's up
And it's all a blur
And it's all a blur to me
When I get out, you’ll see what I can be
[Chorus]
I don't want to fantasize
Life ain’t giving paradise
Time has made me cynical
I'm a little bit stressed out
Every tear a battle cry
Lost my spark, I don't know why
Nothing helps to pacify
I'm a little bit stressed out
[Bridge]
Fear don’t weight me down
Im tired of all this change it wears me out
Don’t with this pretending everything’s fine
You know it’s got me stressed out
I don't want to fantasize
Life ain’t giving paradise
Time has made me cynical
I'm a little bit stressed out
Every tear a battle cry
Lost my spark, I don't know why
Nothing helps to pacify
I'm a little bit stressed out
I don't want to fantasize
Life ain’t giving paradise
Time has made me cynical
I'm a little bit stressed out
Every tear a battle cry
Lost my spark, I don't know why
Nothing helps to pacify
I'm a little bit stressed out
