lyrics:

Last night I smoked a cigarette
My dad would have been so upset
then we got tattoos by the coast
and i stood there just like a ghost


maybe i’m an old soul trapped in a young body
maybe you don’t really want me there at your birthday party
i’ll be there in the corner, thinking right over
every single word of the conversation we just had

…

why am i like this?

...

I saw a girl crying on the train
gin and tonic from a can to ease the pain
i never asked if she was OK
she just got up and walked away


it feels like looking down from the ceiling above
never in the moment, never giving enough
let’s go out and shout the words we never said
i got my mistakes on loop inside my head

…

why am i like this?

...
