so i wrote this song on the last day of high school about the disillusionment that i felt leaving high school and the regret of not fully enjoying what i had when i had it. I think that all this crazy stuff with the coronavirus has definitely made everyone reflect on what they've taken for granted and what they wish they would've done different, so I thought it'd be fitting I post this. I also posted this video on TikTok and it astonished me how much love and support there was for my music. I really love what I do, and it makes me unbelievably happy to have support along the way. I'm working as hard as I can on my EP album, music videos, and other projects so look out for that soon! I'll also be posting more originals on my TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, etc. ;)

Lyrics:
(Verses)
I spent too many nights alone and staying awake
Was it worth it for that 5.0 GPA
Cause’ all my dreams are still unclear and so far away
Sometimes it feels like I just need to run away

(Pre-Chorus)
I wish my life was like a cliche teen movie
I wish I crashed my car outside your friend’s party
I wish we watched the stars under the summer breeze
Is it too late? Too late to live out my dreams

(Chorus)
Cause’ I’m so tired and I’m a mess
And I keep running from myself
These are the nights that keep us young
We’re staying up late to pass the time

I’m scared of the future, running from the past
Can’t live now it’s going too fast
One day I’ll find where I belong
But for now, I’ll write this song

I’m so tired
Every night
I’m on fire
But alive

We’re still young
We got time
So for now, for now
Let’s live out our lives

(Verses)
I spent too many days trying to be what I’m not
That I forgot all about the things I got
If this is life then maybe we should just get lost
Can we just drive until the world comes at a stop

(Pre-Chorus)
I wish I left the people treating me like less
I wish I finally gathered that self-confidence
I wish we crashed the prom and danced like 96’
Is it too late? Too late to have that movie kiss

(Chorus)
Cause’ I’m so tired and I’m a mess
And I keep running from myself
These are the nights that keep us young
We’re staying up late to pass the time

I’m scared of the future, running from the past
Can’t live now it’s going too fast
One day I’ll find where I belong
But for now, I’ll write this song

I’m so tired
Every night
I’m on fire
But alive

We’re still young
We got time
So for now, for now
Let’s live out our lives

(Bridge)
So let’s live for now
So let’s live for now (x 4)

(Pre-Chorus)
I wish my life was like a cliche teen movie
I wish I crashed my car outside your friend’s party
I wish we watched the stars under the summer breeze
Is it too late? To live out my dreams

(Chorus)
I’m so tired and I’m a mess
And I keep running from myself
These are the nights that keep us young
We’re staying up late to pass the time

I’m scared of the future, running from the past
Can’t live now it’s going too fast
One day I’ll find where I belong
But for now, I’ll write this song

I’m so tired
These nights
I’m on fire
But alive

We’re still young
We got time
So for now, for now
Let’s live out our lives
