lyrics

I may look burnt but I'm really just sunkissed
Moon-walkin on mountains bc it's ok if there's cliffs
I'll stay sharp and stay true to the structures that save me
Knowing they're just as unsafe as what or who preys me
I don't need nothing I don't want nothing I dont have nothing
But I'll show you something if you show me yours
Until we're bored
Let my dirty feet hang dangling leave my hairbrained schemes frayed and tangling
Whistle while I work on my endless list of chores
With room for more room I know that I'll always want more
By myself I'll never get bored

Feeling like dying but feeling so young
Feeling like trying but even that seems so dumb

Keeping the self self-deprecated as to reel in reasons for the self to feel jaded
Looking back on the past on those that you've hated noticing how closely you and them are related
Afraid of the dark so you leave the lights on
Afraid to leave your mark for what that mark may become
Why fly when it makes the risk of falling so damn high
When it'll never be enough just tryna get by
Fucked it all up in attempt to perfect and pry
Just got too damn impatient waitin for the paint to dry
