Not What I Seem

Romanticize the mundane, it makes it all feel okay Sick of pretending it's easy I'm tying up my loose ends and losing all of my friends They have it better in theory Eighteen and I don't have a license or a good plan To get me off my bedroom floor Remind me that there's no rush, no pressure to be grown up Tell me I'm worth waiting for All I have left of myself is close to nothing I'll reinvent somebody else, I'm trying to be something Just not what I seem Not what I seem The future is my fault line, autumn leaves state of mind At least now I'm sad on the highway Waiting on the quicksand to be there when the dice land Breaking the rules of my own game Nineteen and I'm angry, was promised more than what they gave me Breathe and get older So pull me from the tight knots, living in a tight spot Cut my hair just to let weight off my shoulders All I have left of myself is close to nothing I'll reinvent somebody else, I'm trying to be something Just not what I seem Not what I seem Romanticize the mundane, it makes it all feel okay Sick of pretending it's easy I'm not what I seem, not what I seem Not what I seem
