lyrics

If you think I’m a homewrecker
I think you’re wrong
But I did just buy a sledgehammer
And ruin my own
Up to bat, I’m a hard hitter
When I’m in the zone
If you think I’m a homewrecker
I ruined my own

But if you think I’m a go-getter
I think you’re right
Went and got something to feel better
Then I’m outta sight
Hit the highway like a roadrunner
Fluttering by
If you think I’m a go-getter
I think you’re right

Bitter after failure
Getting so old
Got the devil on my shoulder cracking the code
And it’s fake it till you make it
Even though you never will
But as long as you can know it
It’ll make failure an easy pill
All this making music
Is it even worth the time?
Really who will listen?
Spend 3k to make a cent on Spotify
But here I am now cause I got the ache
Bending over backwards, I’m gonna break

But if you think I’m a push over
You got me all wrong
I swear I tripped and I fell over
All on my own
Yea I threw myself a haymaker
Shook up my bones
If you think I’m a push over
You got me all wrong

Satisfy my hunger
By picking a fight
I know that I’m pathetic
But I’m also right
Cause I fake it till I make it
Even though I never will
I’m just here to show it
Swallowed every single little pill
And all this making music
It’s my way of feeling alright
It’s cool if no one listens
I’m used to playing to an empty room all night
So here I am now cause I got the ache
Bending over backwards, I’m gonna break

Always thought you were a shit talker
Was right all along
Said you liked my songs way better
When he sang them wrong
Why aren’t you guys on swoon records?
It’s where you belong
Oh your band’s got 30 songs?
Here’s thirty-one
Oh your band’s got 30 songs?
Here’s thirty-one
It’s all in bad fun
