The first colab between myself and the cool band Hey Dog Dog!
lyrics
Verse//
I find myself stuck between a rock and a hard place
I’ve been here before, too many times
I don’t even have a dime to my name
The same game, played with all the cheat codes on
And I still can’t find a way home
Prechorus//
And I swear it’s true
When I’m not with you
It’s like I’m lookin’ at the world
From the outside in
I swear I wanna be there
But it’s hard sometimes
Yeah, it’s kinda hard sometimes
Oh, hard sometimes
Chorus///
He was a misfit, she was a princess
If you hit the snooze on, you just might of missed it
Level with me please: do I have a chance in hell?
It’s easy to see me
For what I am cuz I left the rest inside a photo on the floor
This feeling is something I just can’t ignore
Verse II//
There’s a part of me that wishes
I’d picked the roads that are easy
The rhythm goes on, the measures are gone
I’ve been here all night, but a night isn’t long
Played the same game
Cheated my way to the bottom
Now I see what always
Brought you down
Bridge//
Go on pretending
The world isn’t ending
You haven’t even found
What you’re fighting for
I hope I have the health
for what comes next
//Prechorus II
Oh, who am I to kid?
That’s the laugh I missed
It’s like I’m seeing where I’ve been
And all the things I did
I am stretching thin, low on oxygen
Making it easy to breathe out but hard to breathe it back in
