what are you doing here? Lyrics by Elena Erin

Roaring 20s

2025

[VERSE]
The reason why it's hard to explain
Is that I don’t understand it myself
And its hard to cry for help
When you don’t know what might come out
 
And vicious evenings I completely played it dead
My first feeling was a bullet to the head
And I prayed I'd
Get out of here dead or alive
 
[PRE-Chorus]
So when you come down
And I'm still floating
Floating in the air
Like the last man standing
What are you doing here?
No one ever stays
So
What are you doing here?
 
[Chorus]
I was a kid who thought I would be fine
Lost my soul, lost my life, lost my mind
I wasn't ever really there to begin with
Never ever really was one dimension 
Never ever really got new beginnings
 
So what are you doing here?
 
I was a kid who thought I'd make it right
Got to places so bright I could die
And All I ever saw was my reflection
looking at me like where we heading?
And baby what are we doing here?
 
[VERSE]
When you ain't ever had it before
Love kinda feels like a miracle
No not the kind from the movies
The kind that waits with you in the rain
 
But when all you’ve learned is
Pain and hurt then
Love that tries to stick around
Feels like it’s a game
 
[PRE-Chorus]
So when you come down
And I'm still floating
Floating in the air
Like the last man standing
What are you doing here?
No one ever stays
So
What are you doing here?
 
[Chorus]
I was a kid who thought I would be fine
Lost my soul, lost my life, lost my mind
I wasn't ever really there to begin with
Never ever really was one dimension 
Never ever really got new beginnings
 
So what are you doing here?
 
I was a kid who thought I'd make it right
Got to places so bright I could die
And All I ever saw was my reflection
looking at me like where we heading?
And baby what are we doing here?
 
[BRIDGE]
When you ain't ever had it before
Love kinda feels like a miracle
Don’t get me wrong
I’ll still fight you if you try to move in too soon
What are you doing here?
 Cause it’s easy
Wandering baby
But I still can't fly
What am I doing here?
 
[Chorus]
I was a kid who thought I would be fine
Lost my soul, lost my life, lost my mind
I wasn't ever really there to begin with
Never ever really was one dimension 
Never ever really got new beginnings
 
So what are you doing here?
 
I was a kid who thought I'd make it right
Got to places so bright I could die
And All I ever saw was my reflection
looking at me like where we heading?
And baby what are we doing here?
