Sink Too Deep
For as long as I can think back
I never wanted to let you down
But for now I'm more focused on making me proud
Someday I hope you'll understand
This is what I need right now
I know that someday I'll figure my shit out
Turning eighteen's not what it used to be
It's feeling desperate, lost, and lonely
Problems I don't need
It seems that everyone has my life picked out for me
Go to school and get your degree
It's the only way to be happy
It may sound childish
But my minds made up and the harsh truth is
I'm just not cut out for minimum wage and community college
I'm nothing more than what you see
Just a kid, trying to be honest
With some problems, trying to solve them
If I wrote the real book about growing up
The first line would be
This world is full of bullshit
Don't let yourself sink too deep
Do whatever it takes to get some sleep
Gotta get some sleep
It seems that everyone has my life picked out for me
Go to school and get your degree
It's the only way to be happy
It may sound childish
But my minds made up and the harsh truth is
I'm just not cut out for minimum wage and community college
Sometimes it's hard enough to breath
Not to mention, saying anything but pathetic please
And all I'm asking is please let me be who I need to be
Please let me be who I need to be
The day I give up on this dream will be the day it kills me
It'll take it's toll on me but at least I will die smiling
The day I give up on this dream will be the day it kills me
And when that day comes I'll finally be happy
I never wanted to let you down
But for now I'm more focused on making me proud
Someday I hope you'll understand
This is what I need right now
I know that someday I'll figure my shit out
Turning eighteen's not what it used to be
It's feeling desperate, lost, and lonely
Problems I don't need
It seems that everyone has my life picked out for me
Go to school and get your degree
It's the only way to be happy
It may sound childish
But my minds made up and the harsh truth is
I'm just not cut out for minimum wage and community college
I'm nothing more than what you see
Just a kid, trying to be honest
With some problems, trying to solve them
If I wrote the real book about growing up
The first line would be
This world is full of bullshit
Don't let yourself sink too deep
Do whatever it takes to get some sleep
Gotta get some sleep
It seems that everyone has my life picked out for me
Go to school and get your degree
It's the only way to be happy
It may sound childish
But my minds made up and the harsh truth is
I'm just not cut out for minimum wage and community college
Sometimes it's hard enough to breath
Not to mention, saying anything but pathetic please
And all I'm asking is please let me be who I need to be
Please let me be who I need to be
The day I give up on this dream will be the day it kills me
It'll take it's toll on me but at least I will die smiling
The day I give up on this dream will be the day it kills me
And when that day comes I'll finally be happy
