overlöded - clean up my act lyrics
[verse 1]
feeling crushed by the reality
that’ll never amount to much of anything
knowing the pain falls squarely on me
but never taking accountability
[verse 2]
and if i could talk to 10+year+old me
he’d ask: “why i’m not who you wanted to be?”
he wanted harvard, a fancy degree
instead he all got was underachieving
[verse 3]
can’t take care of myself and i don’t get enough sleep
used to shave everyday, now it’s every week
it’s not giving up, it’s just accepting the fear
that the person i was
is no longer here
[instrumental break]
[verse 4]
saw some friеnds for the first time in ages
thеy talked about parties, and the drugs they were taking
it feels like our lives, are in different stages
like i just took off, while they finished the race
and i’m not fighting back, i’m just complacent
actively finding ways to blemish my name
it’s a sorry sight, for anyone to see
shaming myself publicly
disappointing the ones around me
and a conscious effort to change my thing
[bridge]
when my metabolism wears off and my hairline recedes
i’ll get confusing looks from everyone i meet
they’ll look me up on instagram
and they’ll ask themselves: “what happened to him?”
they’ll send the picture to their friends
and they’ll laugh and [?] a message that says:
“hey, do you really need some help?”
ah well, then…
go f+ck yourself!
[guitar solo]
[coda]
i’ll tell off my friends
i’ll stay in some rest
i’ll call off for once, or be over it
i’ll keep up my job
i’ll write other songs
they laugh at my voice
and clean up my act
i’ll play part of it
i’ll play off the dead
i’ll sing [?] won’t forget
and clean up my act
i’ll be what they ask
and [?]
they’ll all kiss my ass
when i clean up my act
[saxophone instrumental]
[refrain]
i’ll be what they ask
and [?]
they’ll all kiss my ass
when i clean up my act
