lyrics

i tried my best to come on and get happy.
i tried to pack all my cares away.
i tried to swim as soon as i hit the water,
but i got swallowed by the waves.
the waves that used to calm me,
used to stabilize my gears.
now i've dropped the oars, my boat's going down,
and i can't find any piers.

forgive me if i'm not talking,
i'm just having a shitty day,
a shitty week, a shitty month,
a shitty life stuck in this place.
don't put it on the world or on yourself,
there's really nothing to fear;
someday, somewhere we'll find comfort,
i just can't find any here.
