about
for a bit of bg story: within a span of less than 48 hours, i wrote this song from the very beginning, produced a demo that night, sent it to the song's co-producer nolan gerwing the next morning, and he literally sent me what was very close to the final mixed track within 48 hours of starting the creation of the song. i think the hectic impulsiveness comes through in the song which is really fun. i just wanted to write a good song to dance to maybe??? or just a more upbeat one in general despite its extremely self-critical lyrics LOL. hope u like it!!! ps thanks nolan for all you contributed to this track!
lyrics
i'm wide awake, i can't sleep cause my head hurts
wall's thin, the TV sounds like a stranger
shouldn't be pissed cause it's 9 on a friday
what am i doing with a headache anyway?
i didn't know that i was as little as i was
i didn't know that it was ever a problem
i thought that i'd outgrow it all
but now i'm suffocating below it all
if you knew me then, i think you'd hate me
even then, i was a stupid little baby
i don't think that i know now what i've
been trying to learn the whole time
ahh, ahh
i didn't know that i was as little as i was
i didn't know that it was ever a problem
i thought that i'd outgrow it all
but now i'm suffocating below it all
