Lyrics

Once upon a time there was a girl who loved attention
Giving out free tickets to the "please-like-me" convention
She could sell the whole place out and still be
Searchin' for the faces
Of 3 people from high school who still don't know what her name is
She throws every party just so she gets the invite
Overt over-thinker, oh her story sounds like mine
I'm a little underslept a little motherfuckin mess a little
Ready to get out my head, oh shouldn't it be simple
Like a fairytale I would write
Once upon a time
In the middle of a 20 something crisis
Self-critical, I wanna be less like this
Hoping one day this won't be my whole life
Just a once upon a time
Once upon a time there was a girl whose heart was racin'
Stuck inside the shame-cycle of starting medication
If you're gonna hurt her then you better get creative
Cuz it couldn't be worse than what's in her imagination
Devil on her shoulder, and she can't get it to leave
Has anybody told her that she sounds a lot like me?
I'm a little underslept a little motherfuckin mess a little
Ready to get out my head, oh shouldn't it be simple
Like a fairytale I would write
Once upon a time
In the middle of a 20 something crisis
Self-critical, I wanna be less like this
Hoping one day this won't be my whole life
Just a once upon a time
Oh my god I think that I might die
If I'm somebody that no one likes
Everyone's so cool but I just try and try and try and try
Where's the moral of the story, when do I get to know why?
I'm a little underslept a little motherfuckin mess a little
Ready to get out my head, oh shouldn't it be simple
Like a fairytale I would write
Once upon a time
In the middle of a 20 something crisis
Self-critical, I wanna be less like this
Hoping one day this won't be my whole life
Just a once upon a time
