Michael Lyrics by QTY

QTY

2017

[Verse 1]
Spoiled the evening
Was busy turning on myself
I turn to Michael
He says my skin has gotten worse
I've come full circle
Collecting crystals for my desk
Well, since when were rocks out of my budget?
Oh, now I'm questioning things

[Verse 2]
Picture yourself a mess
Well, you'll get better, you'll get worse
Now see yourself depressed
It's not so hard if you just live
A little on the edge
Or come on over to my place
If I heard it said again: "Day by day"
I'm gonna lose my mind

[Chorus]
But that's how it goes
You're alright until you're sweating chemicals
Just keep on living, baby
They clipped my wings
And the winds felt different since
And ever since, I've been upset

[Verse 3]
I'm just here, freezing
Feels like this week could be my last
I'd turn the heat on
But I don't even have the choice
Ask for per diems
From wealthy friends and corner boys
Hightail to comforters 'til it's time for more
I'm repositioning things

[Chorus]
But that's how it goes
You're alright until you're sweating chemicals
Just keep on living, baby
They clipped my wings
And the winds felt different since
And ever since, I've been upset

[Bridge]
They're curing endings now, they traced my shadow back to me
I'm in a strange place, choking on a smoke machine
I miss the stresses of being strung out a couple months
Now all my stress is from what somebody else wants
I miss the color scheme, the room above the kitchen
In my sister's jeans while she was out getting wrecked
I miss the gender play, I was obsessed as a teen
Women wore it better but nobody looked like me

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
But that's how it goes
You're alright until you're sweating chemicals
Just keep on living, baby
They clipped my wings
And the wind felt different since
But that's how it goes
You're alright until you're sweating chemicals
Just keep on living, baby
Well, they clipped my wings
And the wind felt different since
And ever since, I've been upset
