I've been stuck
Unable to sleep
When I'm alone and feeling beat
Breathing hurts
The air is too thick
The thought of being forgotten
Well it makes me sick
Yeah being forgotten
Well it makes me sick
'Cause it's true
I'm still the boy who wants to dream
Been caught in the loop
With the critic in me
Never impressed
With ninety percent
Anything less and I'd scrap my attempt
But as a child, it was worth it
The price to be perfect
Now I'm just nervous to try
Oh, why
Yeah it's true
I'm still the boy who wants to dream
Been caught in the loop
With the critic in me
Yeah I know I'm impatient
And the internet's a lie
But someone's gotta tell me I'll be alright
No it's never been easy
For anyone who loves
Yeah we're all heartbroken optimists
Who never live enough
It's true
I'm still the boy who wants to dream
I'm caught in the loop
With the critic in me
I know I'm impatient
And the internet's a lie
Someone's gotta tell me I'll be alright
No it's never been easy
For anyone who loves
Yeah we're all heartbroken optimists
Who never live enough
It's true
Been caught in the loop
