Life On The Shelf Lyrics by VARLEY

Face To Punch

2024

[Verse 1]
Here's the reason I don't drive
No, seriously, I'm petrified
That my friends on the passenger side would die
And I would survive
I just figured I'd consider
Staying in bed for forever
At least I can't hurt anyone but myself
And that's just collateral damage
[Chorus]
I try to be realistic
Read all of the statistics
And I'm sorry, I'm pessimistic
But my mind's apocalyptic
Living my life on the shelf
The flowers I bought for myself
Are witherin' like my mental health
Just sorry to my younger self
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh
Oooh
Oooh
Oooh
[Verse 2]
Maybe if I'd grown up in another town
A new name, a new face I'd be happier by now
I don't know how but I should really go now
I don't wanna live with the same shame
Catching up on me again and again
Can't outrun it, just try to numb it
[Chorus]
I try to be realistic
Read all of the statistics
And I'm sorry, I'm pessimistic
But my mind's apocalyptic
Living my life on the shelf
Those flowers I bought for myself
Are witherin' like my mental health
And I'm just sorry to my younger self
[Post-Chorus]
Oooh
Oooh
[Outro]
Here's the reason I don't drive
No, seriously, I'm petrified
That my friends on the passenger side would die
