Lyrics

I'm A Mess

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Try not to wake me up, cause I don't feel too good

I’m tired of miracles and being so understood

Let’s all be difficult and never try too hard

Let’s all be critical of those who show their heart

If this sounds typical then congratulate yourself

I’m proud I'm miserable but don't tell anyone because I’m breaking down

Maybe I’m just lost they said

Maybe I’m just tired or dead inside

Something’s wrong with me

Maybe that’s just how I am

Maybe I’m a mess and I ain’t gonna change

So tired of being old and feeling cold and numb

So tired of being told I'm acting young and dumb

I’m not as quick to say that I wish I could quit

I gave up on giving up and lost myself a bit trying to be a ghost

I don’t wanna be here

I don't wanna be there

I don't wanna be anywhere

I don’t wanna be here

I don't wanna be there

Save your breath because I don't care

Hold your breath we may need the air

I write the bastard songs, they make me feel alive

I like the saddest songs and pretending I’m alright

But maybe its just me

Or maybe I’m just fine with it

Finally proud to live inside my own skin

Maybe that’s just who I am

Maybe I’m a mess

Maybe I’m just lost they said

Maybe I’m just tired or dead inside

Something’s wrong with me?

Maybe that’s just how I am

Maybe I’m a mess

Baby, that’s just how I am, I am just a mess

And I don't wanna change
