Lyrics

Ready but I can't get it started
Open but I feel like my heart is lagging and thin
Socials feel a little bit hollow
Maybe with a like and a follow I'll matter again
Eventually you find what your voice is
Essentially there isn't a choice, it's those who pretend
Learning where to be when the eyes swarm
Leaning like a tree in an ice storm, you'll break if you bend
I'm almost ready to give up
I'm almost ready to give up
But I'm not giving in
I'm just laying down
Resting my head
Turning around
And starting again
Make a case for trying to continue
Self-respect is back on the menu, don't try to pretend
Not saying I'm not disappointed
When someone else is always anointed time and again
So saddle up to mimics and posers
You gotta keep your enemies closer, where does it end?
I'm almost ready to give up
I'm almost ready to give up
But I'm not giving in
I'm just laying down
Resting my head
Turning around
And starting again
I'll be flying as they're bobbing in the deep end
I'm no lover boy here working for the weekend
I'm implying that given time
I'll divine you want mine, get in line
I'm almost ready to give up
I'm almost ready to give up
I'm almost ready to give up
I'm almost ready to give up
But I'm not giving in
I'm just laying down
Resting my head
Turning around
And starting again
Resting my head
Turning around
And starting again
Turning around
And starting again
