Piché - Cartoons (feat. Clara Hannigan) Lyrics

Looking around
Checking my whereabouts
I can't get it out
These thoughts know when I am down
It seemed for a year
But your voice is right in my ear
Like you're in Shakespeare, saying you're right here
When really you disappeared
Was it a scheme
To get the best out of me
You can't leave me be
And I can't even cry myself to sleep
I'm out of my mind
When all I do is try to unwind
The stars really aligned, or did they just confine
Me to the real mastermind

So, so, so what do I
Have to do to leave this all behind, whoa
I feel, feel, feel uninspired
To get out there again 'cause the last time it backfired, whoa

Lonely and afraid
But I can't show that face today
Wishing your memory'd go away
But I live with it here to stay
Tell me do you ever feel
Like your heart just cut a deal
Now who knows what's at the wheel
But you're living in a world not as real

I always assumed days would be better than as of late
Stomach empty, feeling faint, I hope I don't lose weight
Using lose change to get my dues paid
Since I got robbed I guess my mood changed
Went from Whole Foods to no food, my phone buzz, it's old news
These old dudes so old school so old rules we go through, hm
I'm sifting photos like I'm in a dark room
Looking back, feeling like my life's a cartoon
And my future got me nervous, acting out
I'm worried she don't want me, she don't wanna come around
Got the feeling in my throat when tears streaming down
Mouth twitching when I try to hide away the frown
Whatever happened to beginners luck
I'm only 23, but story's older than my papa's truck
My drive about as good as Happy Wheels
And rapping 'bout my problems probably get me selling Happy Meals

I ain't been the same, think I'm falling off quick
Got me in they hands, yeah they got me like a Switch
Wallet in the pocket, all it's got a lot of lint
We ain't gotta make it, we just gotta make a bit
Ramen on the regular, and honest, that's it
But people tryna rob me, yeah, and honest, that's rich
Wallet in the pocket, all it's got a lot of lint
We ain't gotta make it, we just gotta make a bit

Lonely and afraid
But I can't show that face today
Wishing your memory'd go away
But I live with it here to stay
Tell me do you ever feel
Like your heart just cut a deal
Now who knows what's at the wheel
But you're living in a world not as real
