[Verse 1]: So little has been uplifting me I cannot take any more Something's gone wrong with my history A fragrance that I never wore Jealousy will not stop kissing me; She takes over when she likes I promise that I will get better but I need something newer in my sights, oh Isolation's the name Overthinking's the game Yes, I know I can change But I need a new portrait, I need a new frame [Chorus]: Fresh outta options I can't stop it Got so much weighing on my conscience I don't know where my head is at There's parts of me I can't get back If I knew myself any better; I'd be able to keep my head up I don't know what I'm doing here Reality is not so clear Oh yeah, yeah What do I do? What do I choose? The more I play, the more I lose Why? Why? [Verse 2]: Tell me what can I say? What can I do? It's so damn hard I'm so confused Not myself on Monday, angry on Tuesday Wednesday is harder, Thursday is useless Friday is better, Saturday I can be more like myself But on Sunday I'm frightened Senses are heightened But Lord knows I'm trying; Not to be defiant I don't know where my head is at There's parts of me I can't get back [Verse 3]: Yeah, I got nerve like a motherfucker; I do not run from my L's Pray that my ego does not recover; 'cause she don't take them L's too well Said that I wanna start over These patterns are getting too old I wanna feel lucky like clovers Have a conversation with my soul, oh More things changed, they're the same I refuse to be claimed Emotionally drained But I need a new mantra New rules to obey [Chorus]: Fresh outta options I can't stop it Got so much weighing on my conscience Doesn't really matter now I always find a way somehow; to be okay If I knew myself any better; I'd be able to keep my head up I don't know where my head is at There's parts of me I can't get back Oh Why? Why? Why? [Voice Memo]: I think also because you, you love singing so much And you love writing so much. A message- A message In the same breath, ummm You put a lot of pressure on yourself But you also have to remember to just enjoy it You know? Be gentle with yourself You want everything to be so perfect -and there's nothing wrong with that- That's also just part of your creative process You have to just like, go through everything; The frustration, the feeling like you're breaking down That's the part that makes magic
