Some Kind Of Cliché

Told a friend I'm happy on my own
Now I'm watching videos of celebrity couples
Looking into each other's eyes
What a surprise
I didn't know I was lying
I didn't know I was lying
I didn't know I was lying

Wrote affirmations on loving myself
Now I want somebody else
To confirm independently the stuff I already know
Got to let go
Got to let go
But it's easier said than done though

Hey
If I'm some kind of cliché
Hey
I hope it turns out okay

Say I do what I want for a living
But at family dinners I'm giving minimal details
About what I'm up to these days
What can I say
Hard to describe anyway
Hard to describe anyway
Hard to describe anyway

Tell myself there's nobody
Who'd do better in my shoes
But whenever I see somebody's life announcement
I just run and hide
I don't know why
Too scared I'm messed up inside
And I'll never get to know
What their normal is like

Hey
If I'm some kind of cliché
Hey
I hope it turns out okay

No official guidebook
Just some precedents
Weighing on your shoulders
Items on a checklist
All the fairytales
Were only in my head
And all I wanna do now
Is sleep alone in my bed

If I could just stop analysing
Everything that I've ever said

I want to take it down
Burn the feeling out
That they're all moving
While I'm static but I don't know how

Just want to let it go
I've got to let it go
Drain my resources trying so hard to let it go

I want to take it down
Burn the feeling out
That they're all moving
While I'm static but I don't know how

Just want to let it go
I've got to let it go
Drain my resources trying so hard to let it go

I want to take it down
Burn the feeling out
That they're all moving
While I'm static but I don't know how

Just want to let it go
I've got to let it go
Drain my resources trying so hard to let it go

I want to take it down
Burn the feeling out
That they're all moving
While I'm static but I don't know how

Just want to let it go
I've got to let it go
Drain my resources trying so hard to let it go
