I always thought that I’d be ahead of my time
And now I’m feeling like I’m 30 years behind
Cause I see teenagers performing on TV
I’m only 21, why are they younger than me?
I’m white, I play guitar, I thought that was enough
I planned on coasting, now my futures looking rough
They’re writing better songs, oh god I can’t compete
I’m only 21, how are they younger than me?
The kids are running circles around me
The kids are running circles around me, can’t you see?
Not even blacking out can shield from the truth
Not even out of college and I’m swallowed by the youth
Thought I’d chase all the old timers out of this city
That the kids are running circles around me
Look at Billie Eilish, I cant be that cool
I didn’t have the luxury of getting homeschooled
Fitting in with classmates stifled creativity
She’s only 17, how is she cooler than me?
Look at Lil Nas X, god that kid is smart
He understands how memes are there to help promote your art
Imagine breaking chart records while you were still 19
I better break those records by the time I’m 23
The kids are running circles around me
The kids are running circles around me, can’t you see?
Not even blacking out can shield from the truth
Not even out of college and I’m swallowed by the youth
I hear their music and it’s like they’re mocking me
Oh the kids are running circles around me
Nyah Nyah Nyah Nyah
The kids are running circles around me
The kids are running circles around me, can’t you see?
Not even blacking out can shield from the truth
Barely out of college and I’m swallowed by the youth
Every shred of ego I have left has to agree
Now the kids are running circles around me

Math & Science

everyone who enjoys math
I’m convinced is a goddamn psychopath
why would i spend hours just to know
something that i could just calculate on my phone
if i have to take one more math class
i’m gonna go insane
i filled my memory with chords and lyrics
got no room in my brain
everyone who enjoys science
has the personality of a kitchen appliance
and everyone who enjoys math
can kiss my art-schooled, theater-loving
kiss my right-brained, english loving
take your numbers and shove them up your ass

Sharing A Bed

Sharing a bed
Is hard when it’s a twin
Cuz it’s not made for twins
Unless the twins are very small
Sharing a bed
There’s never room for two
So it all goes to you
I end up pushed against the wall
It’s not that I don’t love you
I just hate cuddling
I’ll admit that I value sleeping
Over snuggling
I’d like to have some room
To toss and turn and scratch and drool
Sharing a bed is difficult
Even when it’s with you
Sharing a bed
I’ve learned to like it more
Except for when you snore
Then it feels like I’m in hell
Sharing a bed
Is nicer than it seems
You wake me from bad dreams
Somehow you can always tell
And I’ll confess I love you
I just hate cuddling
And i'll admit I value sleeping
Over snuggling
I’d wish I had more room
To toss and turn and scratch and drool
Sharing a bed is difficult
But I’ll do it for you
