  • Will you forgive me if I'm coming off a little bit obtuse?
    Well, it's been a minute now since I have had to tell the truth
    I know I can
    I won't

    Suppose I thought that by this moment I would have it figured out
    But instead, I tend to spend my days consumed by seeds of doubt
    I know I can
    I won't

    Oh, darling, it goes on and on and on
    Always, forever, 'til I'm barely holding on
    End of my tether and I know it won't be long
    It won't be long 'til it's gone

    So here's to my beautiful life
    That seems to leave me so unsatisfied
    No sense of self, but self-obsessed
    I'm always trapped inside my fucking head

    On and on and on, on and on and on
    On and on and on, on and on and on
    Said, "Thought I'd be happier somehow
    If you were wondering how I'm feeling now"

    I try to tell myself my best days are the ones that lie ahead
    But I'm always looking back on things I wish I'd never said
    I know I can
    I won't

    Oh, darling, it goes on and on and on
    Always, forever, 'til I'm barely holding on
    End of my tether and I know it won't be long
    It won't be long 'til it's gone

    So here's to my beautiful life
    That seems to leave me so unsatisfied
    No sense of self, but self-obsessed
    I'm always trapped inside my fucking head

    On and on and on, on and on and on
    On and on and on, on and on and on
    Said, "Thought I'd be happier somehow
    If you were wondering how I'm feeling now"

    I won't lie, I'm a mess, yeah
    But I'll get there
    No, I won't lie, I'm a mess, yeah
    But I'll get there

    So here's to my beautiful life
    It seems to leave me so unsatisfied
    No sense of self, but self-obsessed
    I'm always trapped inside my fucking head

    On and on and on, on and on and on
    On and on and on, on and on and on
    Said, "Thought I'd be happier somehow
    If you were wondering how I'm feeling now" Writer/s: Benjamin Alexander Kohn, Lewis Marc Capaldi, Peter Norman Cullen Kelleher, Thomas Andrew Searle Barnes, Tobias MacDonald Jr. Jesso
