lyrics

I am working on myself
Trying really hard to get myself not to do the things I do.
I’m going to therapy once a week
Attempting to make myself better than I am.

I am failing and flailing
Bailing and trailing
It’s a lot of emotional labor
Let me tell ya

I am putting in the time
Determined for a destiny that I can’t control
Defined within my own parameters

Spending all my energy on a process that’s never done
It’s worthless it’s worthwhile
Mindful and meaningless

Mining for gold in an empty cavern of fate
Micromanaging centuries of mistakes

I’m having a conversation with my inner child
They’re being disobedient

I’m trying to exercise some self-control
But I’m not losing any emotional weight

I’m focusing on the positive
And it’s making me feel numb
The process is never done
I’m beginning to feel undone
