lyrics

I like to say there’s something wrong with me, but this is probably it
No genetic potential that I couldn’t hit
Because I am like most people in the majority of ways
I play up my background to act like I have a fate

It’s always the same song: beige houses stuck together
In the condo we moved into - I was 4; it was November
I was safe and warm and my dad finished his degree
It was probably fine although I'll never know for sure

I know one of us is lying and it could still be my fault
As I get older and fade into nothing interesting at all
There are ways I could have tried harder and not expected them to coddle me
And there are ways I could have got further if there was an adult around who could have helped me

Oh you knew I was in pain.
But you didn’t help with shit.
And you left me to cry - you know, I was just a kid.
9 years old, knew it was just me, to a child, that’s like hell
And all you fucking taught me is I had to help myself

oh I know it’s not so bad, and it could have been worse
and I’ll always be grateful for my grandma and my teachers
and I grew up in a good area and you said we were fine
and I still doubt myself on this stuff all the time

and maybe I was brainwashed by some psychotherapist
but it doesn’t explain why I felt this way
before I even went
be do better if I got over it
and just went on my way
as time passes I feel less sorry for myself
and more like I just have to pave my own way
