HaleyJane Rose - Three First Names Lyrics

Going out on the upper east side
I'm an imposter on a Saturday night
But I sway my hair just right
Then I see him in the dark dark dark dark light

Hadn't seen him since high school
Never mind I barely saw him then
Didn't swim in the same school of fish
Not even in the same aquarium
He'll wonder how I'm doing
It's everybody's favorite scene
Clear my throat so he can tell his friends
How f*cking great I seem

At the end of the day I'm just fourteen
Trying to justify all my dreams
So I lie through our teeth

I've got three first names and a champion heart
I've got $4 to my name so I'm a failing upstart
I'm working through the bruises and my shitty credit
And "Aren't you an actor still? At least I think I read it"
He'll say he knows the words to my music
But if I had any good truth I'd use it
I've got three first names
That's all he really knows about me
But I can talk to pretend to be... much more

I can say all the right things
So you'll wanna go keep me in your phone
Liking all of my pretty pictures
And wonder what I'm like alone
Never even start to imagine
That I'm just a petty human being
When we all just wanna make it look like
That to be alive is more than breathing

At the end of the day we're just fourteen
Trying to justify all our dreams
So we lie through our teeth

I've got three first names and a champion heart
I've got $4 to my name so I'm a failing upstart
I'm working through the bruises and my shitty credit
And "Aren't you an actor still? At least I think I read it"
He'll say he knows the words to my music
But if I had any good truth I'd use it
I've got three first names
That's all he really knows about me
But I can talk to pretend to be...

Much more than just okay
Much more than my uninspired 401k
It comes down to human nature
Even if he's just my one-time waiter
So excuse me vanity
It's not like I could ever say

I've got three first names and a champion heart
I've got $4 to my name so I'm a failing upstart
I'm working through the bruises and my shitty credit
And "Aren't you an actor still? At least I think I read it"
He'll say he knows the words to my music
But if I had any good truth I'd use it
I've got three first names
That's all he really knows about me
But I can talk to pretend to be
I can pretend to pretend to be
So I'll pretend til' I don't have to pretend to be much more
