#JessBenko #WhenNobodysWatching #ASoulmateWhoWasntMeantToBe

LYRICS:

VERSE 1
Project your problems onto me
Tell you it’ll all be fine
Promise I’ll be your therapy
Use up all my empathy
Take all my energy
 
PRE
Guess I'm just the good guy
They say that we can't live unless we live a lie 
I wanna see myself but see it through your eyes
Blurry world drowning in my own cries
 
CHORUS
Who am I when nobody's watching, nobody’s watching
Who am I when nobody's watching, nobody’s watching 
Am I the same?
Going insane?
 
VERSE 2
You’re Only gonna see what you want to 
Even if I share both sides 
Some things I gotta get through
And I hate to break it to you 
I'm not the person you knew
 
PRE
Guess I had to compromise 
I'm not the type of person you should idolize 
I wanna see myself but see it through your eyes
Blurry world drowning in my own cries
 
CHORUS
Who am I when nobody's watching, nobody’s watching
Who am I when nobody's watching, nobody’s watching 
Am I the same?
Going insane?
Am I the same?
Going insane?
 
VERSE/OUTRO
Think i switch up when you put your eyes on me
Punching bag you know there's no symmetry 
I’m here to fulfill your fantasy

When Nobody's Watching

i’m scared of things ending and so i try to push letting go off for as long as i can… but eventually you have to say goodbye (even if it hurts)

goodbyes hurt

#JessBenko #NewFriends #ASoulmateWhoWasntMeantToBe

LYRICS:

I kinda wanna stop making new friends
Cause the more that I have that’s more funerals to attend 
I know it’s selfish to think that way
But i won’t know how to act if you’re not okay
 
To my new friends
I’m sorry if i don’t talk too much
You’re saying let’s hang out “we’re losing touch“
To my new friends
I'm sorry if i only see you twice a year
It’s hurts my heart but not as much as 
Shedding another tear
To my new friends
To my new friends 
 
I guess i’ll just stay inside
Give in to the introverted parts of my mind
If it hurts this much only to imagine what could be
How am I supposed to deal with reality 
 
To my new friends
I’m sorry if I don’t talk too much
You’re saying let’s hang out “we’re losing touch“
To my new friends
I'm sorry if I only see you twice a year
It’s hurts my heart but not as much as 
Shedding another tear
To my new friends
To my new friends
To my new friends

Lyrics:

Why can’t we talk anymore?
Have we crossed lines we can't ignore?
I wanna hold you closer
But I'm scared you’ll push me over

Luck is on my side
When I catch you at a good time
I need you more than you realize

I’m walking on eggshells right now
Trying not to exhale too loud
Don’t wanna set you off
And let you bring me down down down

I’m walking on eggshells right now
Stooping to your level somehow
If it’s a game of chances
I don’t like my odds right now, now now

Was it something I said
Did I do you wrong?
You seem upset
Is the love all gone?

Can’t you tell I’m struggling?
Can’t you tell?...

I’m walking on eggshells right now
Trying not to exhale too loud
Don’t wanna set you off
And let you bring me down down down

I’m walking on eggshells right now
Stooping to your level somehow
If it’s a game of chances
I don’t like my odds right now, now now

Now, now, now

I’m walking on eggshells right now
Trying not to exhale too loud
Don’t wanna set you off
And let you bring me down down down

I’m walking on eggshells right now
Trying not to exhale too loud
Don’t wanna set you off
And let you bring me down down down

I’m walking on eggshells right now
Stooping to your level somehow
If it’s a game of chances
I don’t like my odds right now, now now

LYRICS:

Nobody told me life was gonna be this lonely 
I’ve got some friends, wonder if they still really know me?
Taking these baby steps, ignoring all my parents texts 
I get nostalgic for a life I haven't lived yet

I'm not ready, I’m not ready, I’m not ready to grow up 
Let's go steady, let's go steady, let's go steady and not rush 

No there's no going back, I left my youth in my school backpack 
Going down different paths, you know that I just can't keep track
I don't know what happened, everything's way too much
So I'm just eating laffy taffy, while the whole world’s laughing at me
‘cause
 
I'm not ready, I’m not ready, I’m not ready to grow up 
Let's go steady, let's go steady, let's go steady and not rush

Did I miss my expiry date?
White rabbits got me caught and I’m up running late 
 
1, 2, 3, 4
 
Nobody told me life was gonna be this lonely 
I’ve got some friends, wonder if they still really know me
Taking these baby steps, ignoring all my parents texts 
I get nostalgic for a life I haven't lived yet
 
I'm not ready, I’m not ready, I’m not ready to grow up 
Let's go steady, let's go steady, let's go steady and not rush

Expired

Jess Benko's Album

maybe you miss me

LYRICS:
i’m tryna convince myself
to act like someone else
is it better for my health
if i keep it to myself

sorry
if it seems like i’m lonely
maybe you just don’t know me
so i constantly remind myself
 
no one wants to cry with the radio on
shuffling my music and it’s all sad songs
don’t know why this phase is taking so damn long
to get out of my head
everybody’s winning while i’m breaking down
hate being so sad with all these are people around
cause i’m scared of what they’ll think of me
scared i’ll be the death of me
am i my own worst enemy?
am i my own worst enemy?
 
hide it so you can’t tell
i’m not a child don’t need your help
i’ll work it out on my own
finding shelter from my storm
 
sorry
if it seems like i’m lonely
maybe you just don’t know me
so i constantly remind myself
 
no one wants to cry with the radio on
shuffling my music and it’s all sad songs
don’t know why this phase is taking so damn long
to get out of my head
 
everybody’s winning while i’m breaking down
hate being so sad with all these are people around
cause i’m scared of what they’ll think of me
scared i’ll be the death of me
am i my own worst enemy?
am i my own worst enemy?
