MESS Lyrics by PEGGY

Dear Reader - EP

2023

[Verse 1]
I always smile but it doesn't reach my eyes
And I'm forgetful but I promise that I try
It's a curse and a blessing
The way that I'm never resting
My mind's always moving much faster than my mouth
I know what to say but it never comes out right
You know what I mean, right? (You know what I mean, right? No)

[Pre-Chorus]
This party is too loud
The noise makes me stressed out
I know (I know, I know, I know)
Oh, I know

[Chorus]
I'm a mess
But that doesn't make me less than you
I'm naive
But still I wish the best for you
And I may make mistakes that I shouldn't at my age
I know I'm not incompetent
But, damn, you make me feel that way

[Post-Chorus]
You make me feel that way, you makе me feel that way
You make me feel that way, ah
Ah

[Verse 2]
Somеtimes my own room is the safest that I feel
And nothing around me feels like it's real
I sit alone in a panic, there's always something I'm forgetting
I always remember the strangest things I've said
When I'm alone at night in my bed
And my head is a choir, and my only desire is for silence, shh

[Pre-Chorus]
And my thoughts are racing
The fear I keep chasing
I know
(Oh, I know)

[Chorus]
I'm a mess
But that doesn't make me less than you
I'm naive
But still I wish the best for you
And I may make mistakes that I shouldn't at my age
I know I'm not incompetent
But, damn, you make me feel that way
