Demo for sure. A lot more I want to do with this one.

Falling down so hard
Drinking gin in the backyard
I’m spent, I got nothing to give
Why is life so hard to live?

There’s a girl I like at work
She makes me laugh and I try to flirt
Even if she doesn’t  notice me
She gives me a reason to dream.

Misunderstood 
I don’t care
Could something good
Come from somewhere?
I do my best
I stay in line
I pretend everything’s fine
Cause it is what it is.

Sometimes I cry sometimes I have fun 
Can two things be true at once?
I wanna know where courage is born,
I want peace for everyone.

Misunderstood 
I don’t care
Could something good
Come from somewhere?
I do my best
I stay in line
I pretend everything’s fine
Cause it is what it is.

I pretend everything’s fine
Cause it is.

Misunderstood

I should stop shopping online
I should spend less screen time
I wanna drink from a fresh water spring
Breathe the forest Hear birds sing

This world is gonna get me
This world it ain’t so friendly
This world are we the enemy
Of this world?

Everything gets so dramatic
Tribalism Microplastic
Can’t protect ourselves from everything
Poison smells good Danger’s appetizing 

This world is gonna get me
This world a little tricky
You can buy anything at a store
But you can’t eat the fish from the ocean anymore

A plastic heart
Cracked underground
Can’t cultivate love
From a landfill mound
All the toys
All the clothes 
Thrown away 
For the World
To hold 
As our grave.

Paying attention to what’s around
Nothing comes in unless something goes out
Growing food I’m trying to stay whole
I can fight a battle but not win a war

This world of is gonna get me
This world of creativity
This world of absurdity
This world.

A plastic heart
Cracked underground
Won’t cultivate love
From a landfill mound
All the toys
All the clothes 
Thrown away 
For the World
To hold 
As our grave.

Lyrics:
They say you’ll never be number one
They say the fun has just begun
And I know I know it’s true
And in this life it’s hard to find
Your hand was made to fit right in mine
I know we’ll see it through

Falling stars and chasing cars
Night-time drives with you
It’s four o clock and late night calls
Coffee just for two
Summer ends and I hope that
We can see this thing straight through
Is all we are just young & dumb

Is all we are just young & dumb
Is all we are just young & dumb
Is all we are just young & dumb


Desperate times desperate measures
Maybe we should just stick together
And do what rebels do
I push you pull 
Seen it unfold
Try for them to be so bold
But it is just not you

Falling stars and chasing cars
Night-time drives with you
It’s four o clock and late night calls
Coffee just for two
Summer ends and I hope that
We can see this thing straight through
Is all we are just young & dumb

Is all we are just young & dumb
Is all we are just young & dumb
Is all we are just young & dumb
Is all we are just young & dumb

And the days get a little longer
And the nights get a little shorter
Don’t hear the noise if you
Can’t even hear the sound
And the days get a little longer
Nights get shorter
Don’t hear the noise cause
Youth comes back around

Falling stars and chasing cars
Night-time drives with you
It’s four o clock and late night calls
Coffee just for two
Summer ends and I hope that
We can see this thing straight through
Is all we are just young & dumb
Falling stars and chasing cars
Night-time drives with you
It’s four o clock and late night calls
Coffee just for two
Summer ends and I hope that
We can see these things straight through
Is all we are just young & dumb

Is all we are just young & dumb
Is all we are just young & dumb
Is all we are just young & dumb
Is all we are just young & dumb
Is all we are just young & dumb
Is all we are just young & dumb
Is all we are just young & dumb
Is all we are just young & dumb
