Life can be exhausting. We constantly find ourselves in our own personal battles, and sometimes we get pushed too far. Trying to claw our way through the throes of existence can lead us to act in ways that others do not understand. The universe cannot test us without anticipating a proportionate response. Ultimately, if past actions have molded us into the people we are today, then we can say with confidence: they were not mistakes.

Song Lyrics:
Just leave me alone
Too many wake up calls
I’ll throw the phone right through the wall
What’s with the commentary? 
You knew my face but you never really met me
You haven’t worn my shoes for a single day
Even tying the laces would scare you straight
It’s hard to have remorse because it would’ve been worse with no escape

I’m just a messed up kid
I'm trying to find my way through thick and thin
I do my best but this life seems to drag me down for the hell of it
I won’t make amends for things I did when I was on the edge
All the unintended consequences and burning of every bridge
I’m not sorry

So many rights I’ve wronged
So many late night drunk texts
Fistfighting, gaslighting people I was done with
What's the point of keeping my head down when I’m already wound up?
I’m gonna act out
You might say I took things way too far, but I’m glad my footprints left a mark
‘Cause I've had my back carved and knives in my front after I dropped my guard
What goes around comes around

I’m just a messed up kid
I'm trying to find my way through thick and thin
I do my best but this life seems to drag me down for the hell of it
I won’t make amends for things I did when I was on the edge
All the unintended consequences and burning of every bridge
I’m not sorry

I’m just a messed up kid
I'm trying to find my way
I'm just a messed up kid
I'm trying to find my way

I’m just a messed up kid
I'm trying to find my way through thick and thin
I do my best but this life seems to drag me down for the hell of it
I won’t make amends for things I did when I was on the edge
All the unintended consequences and burning of every bridge
I’m not sorry

Messed Up Kid - The Arcade

The Arcade was founded in 2023 and aims to get the party started right. The most extravagant of vibes will be set by sick beats, angsty vocals, and dope guitar licks. We're here to bring you the Pure Pop Punk your emo heart desires :] 

Based in the heart of Tampa FL. The Arcade plans to continue releasing banging tracks that sound like bands such as All Time Low, Blink-182,  Fall Out Boy, Mayday Parade, Sum 41, Taking Back Sunday, The All-American Rejects and Yellowcard. If we can have your support as the mayor of pop punk village we will continue to bless your souls with our fun songs and tasty riffs.
