lyrics

wakin' late, yet again, another hour, another minute, I don't know what to think of it
been sleepin' on the wrong side of the bed again
4 am is my best friend, I find comfort in the lights and the caffeinated trends
as of late, every day has just been so mundane
hypochondriac with atelophobia, I don't know where I'm going or whether I'll fit in
people keep askin' me if I'm really okay
memories are on my brain, gotta kill 'em with caffeine, alcohol, and nicotine
I know that you never ever felt the same

took a train down to the town, I don't why I came here or why I came around
but you said make the effort for me, for once you might see
so I hung around with all your friends, I know I'm doing good at makin' pretend
and I can't wait for these conversations to end
you said I was way too difficult and that I always acted so cynical
and in that moment I just wanted to be invisible
ignorance is solitude in a world that's been consumed by the youth
just a subtle reminder you'll never be understood

and I've been gettin' lost in the times
ain't no reason to be afraid of livin' in your mind

keep seein' these boys with thorns in their side, and all these charming men with so much to hide
back in nineteen-eighty-five with people who had lonely ideas, and careless lives
and a song came on the radio show, oh, heaven knows we're all miserable now
we all keep seein' the light but it never goes out
you took me to a mystical timezone where I lost my mind and the service on my phone
and there was welcome mats in front of everyone's home
so we walked away from it all, and we smoked cigarettes to cushion our fall
when the earth dropped away, we went and rode on the storm

and I've been gettin' lost in the times
ain't no reason to be afraid of livin' in your mind
