Not a Love Song

Let me tell you now this is not a love song
'Cause life goes on if you're head strong
It's okay if you kinda fucked up
You can brush it off like it's tough luck

Pick yourself up day by day
Write a story page by page
It's okay, its okay
The season's gone, you best move on

Pretty good at hiding feelings
Stare right through my ceiling
Didn't get it on the first take
Gotta room full of mistakes
I'm my own biggest problem, I
Fake a smile and act solemn, I
I never knew how to solve 'em

Been inside before the lockdown
Nothing ever comes a shock now
Shut myself from feeling the shame
Can't stop playing video games
Let me paint a clear picture
Just need to clear glitches
The voice in my head ain't talking much
All I hear is faint whispers

Mom's tryna teach me slogans
A friend said I should try yoga
Trekking up the Himalayas
Meditate and dig through layers
Gonna try and start things over
Guess it's time that I grow up
Sick of people asking what's wrong
Fucking hate all these love songs, yeah

Now I'm crossing the fault line
Kept all of this love confined
It's time to set it free
It's time to let it be

I'm choosing my peace of mind
I know that I'll be fine
And it if ever returned to me
See that I'm not the enemy

Now I'm wishing that I never brushed off premonitions
Had a vision that told me i'm in for it
It's infrared
Got the message and it's intricate
Like deconstructing the infinite
And seeing all the things it implicates

Gotta take it slow for the moment
Rightfully own it, willfully follow my instinct
Until I can skillfully zone in
Overcoming anything that I'm thrown in
Know that fortune only favors the brave
So, would you rather live your life as a slave?
Trapped in our thoughts and we called it depression
But deep in our hearts, owed ourself a confession
I looked at my watch and I never saw too late
Got lust for this life and I need to consummate

The voice in my head ain't talking much
All I hear is faint whispers
Mom's tryna teach me slogans
A friend said I should try yoga
Trekking up the Himalayas
Meditate and dig through layers
Gonna try and start things over
Guess it's time that I grow up
Sick of people asking what's wrong
Fucking hate all these love songs
