adulting

(Hold me, I know that I can't be the only)
And, uh, it always
My M.O is to just be like (are all twenty-something's this lonely?)
"Well, fuck 'em though
Just keep doing what I'm doing
And keep convincing everybody that they're wrong"
And that's what I'll do 'cause I always do it (hold me)
But I'm just tired

I haven't seen my childhood friends in two years
And I fear they might have forgotten my name
'Cause everybody knows that they've changed like me
I'm clinging to my childhood dreams I made real
But still feel that I'll never shine like the stars
I'm still just a kid that makes art

And nobody knows that I'm crying on Tuesday's
And just trying to get out of bed
My sink drain is broken, my bank account's frozen
Adulting is not what they said

Somebody hold me
Are all twenty-something's this lonely?
I'm falling apart and I can't call my mom
'Cause she knows me too well
I can't let it out 'cause it feels like Hell
Someone hold me
I know that I can't be the only one who's a mess
'Cause adulting is kids all just trying their best
We do what we can and then bullshit the rest
That's adulting

I haven't had the strength to go home in six months
And not once have I sent a text to my dad
He probably thinks that I'm dead, mmh

But he doesn't know that I'm dying by Wednesday
And just trying to get out of bed
My sink drain is broken, my bank account's frozen
I still can't get out of my head

Somebody hold me
Are all twenty-something's this lonely?
I'm falling apart and I can't call my mom
'Cause she knows me too well
I can't let it out 'cause it feels like Hell
Someone hold me
I know that I can't be the only one who's a mess
'Cause adulting is kids all just trying their best
We do what we can and then bullshit the rest
That's adulting

Hold me, I know that I can't be the only
Are all twenty-something's this lonely?
Hold me

I haven't seen my childhood friends in two years
But they're here wherever I'm going insane
If nobody told you today, you're gonna be okay
