Lyrics:

Doo doo do-do-do doo

Doo doo do-do-do doo

Doo doo do-do-do doo

Doo doo do-do-do doo

I′m caught up in the everyday trend

Tied up by invisible thread

Walking down a razor-thin edge

And I wake up tired, think I'm better off dead

Been a few months since I crossed over state lines

Talk to my mom, fake smiles over FaceTime

Drink all night ′til I can't walk a straight line

Feel so low, but I'm high at the same time

I can′t keep my feet on the ground

And I′m nervous what you'll think of me now

I′m hoping that someone comes around

And helps me figure it out

I think that I should try to kill my ego

'Cause if I don′t, my ego might kill me

I'm all grown up but somehow lately

I′m acting like a fucking baby

I'm really not as happy as I seem

Still a little kid that can't make friends

Wanna be invited, but I won′t attend

I been having bad dreams, my career could end

Because I slip up when I should′ve played pretend

Turned eighteen, and I left the city

I said "I wanna be cool, I don't wanna be pretty"

Voices all came crashing down

And said, "You′re too nice to run this town"

I can't keep my feet on the ground

And I′m nervous what you'll think of me now

I′m hoping that someone comes around

And helps me figure it out

I think that I should try to kill my ego

'Cause if I don't my ego might kill me

I′m all grown up but somehow lately

I′m acting like a fucking baby

I'm really not as happy as I seem

Nothing′s as it seems

Yeah, nothing's as it seems

And I′m all grown up but somehow lately

I'm acting like a fucking baby

I′m really not that happy being me

I don't like the lie I'm living

I′m way too nice and too forgiving

I wanna go back to the beginning

When it all felt right

A rooftop, Lower East Side, I′m singing

Didn't give a fuck if I was winning

It′s all done now, so who am I kidding?

I'm doing way worse than I′m admitting

I′m really not as happy as I seem

Yeah, nothing's as it seems

And I′m all grown up but somehow lately

I'm acting like a fucking baby

I′m really not that happy being me
