Built For This Lyrics by Jack Gruber

2022

No one's gonna tell you what you can and can't be
They'll just let you spiral till you crash into the sea
Even if you're wrong, you'll never know until you see
That everything you love is slowly disappearing
First you'll see each of your friends walk away
One by one they're backing out day by day
Leaving you alone with what you swore was right
Lying to yourself only dims that light
Tryna be happy, but you feel pinned down
Tryna write a song you think will break you out
Tryna build a character you think might work
Only just to lose the only one that you always were
Chasing that bliss that you haven't seen since before you made art
Thought you needed relief
Now it's all you depend on
All that keeps you content
Gotta keep a moving, steady flow of content
People want to know about everything but
People never want to show anything
To be vulnerable presents you as a mental case
So we have no choice but to bury all This mental weight inside
So when you find out what it means to be alive
Give me a call and I'll be first in line, yeah
Now they know, I'm not built for this
The pressure's building, towards the end of it
No, don't let me fall back down
When you lock away your demons but keep them fed
They're bound to break free when you least expect
And that's when things happen that don't make sense
One second you're laughing the next you're-
You've gotta sit tight while we figure this out
Let's take it to a room we can get loud
Sing about the things that keep us down
Sing it with me eyes off the ground!
Now they know, I'm not built for this
The pressure's building towards the end of it
Now they know, I'm not built for this
The pressure's building towards the end of it
Don't let me fall back down, yeah
Down, yeah. (Ooh, Ooh, Ooh.)
(Fall back down.)
Now they know
I'm not built for this
The pressure's building towards the end of it
And now they know
I am not built for this
The pressure's pushing towards the end of it
