about

Music by Alison Hawkins in collaboration with Adee Rocket Dancy
Lyrics by Alison Hawkins

lyrics

You know where to find me I’ll be in my home
No use in fighting when I’m always alone
I’m done done done don’t even wanna have fun
Panic and run from the life that I have because it sucks so bad

Caught in a cycle always staying in
Too scared to get out to see my friends
Even if they could help me forget

You know how I’m feeling ‘cause I’m always depressed
Nothing over the counter can cure my stress
I’m sinking down down down buried underground
Beginning to drown from the year that I’ve had and it hurts so bad

Caught in a vortex always giving in
It’s a cheap thrill not to try everything
So much more to get when you haven’t

Tried everything yet
You could spend all your savings on a brand new keytar
Tried everything yet
You can’t give up because you haven’t tried everything yet

People ask me how I am all the time
Is it a lie to say I’m doing fine?
Get up up up get a half full cup
Get unstuck try to smile a tad I’m sick of looking so sad

Caught in a vortex always hiding in
Not even trying to try everything
Here’s something I’ll never regret

Tried everything yet
Trade everything you own for a brand new keytar
Tried everything yet
You can’t give up because you haven’t tried everything yet
Tried everything yet
Be anyone you want with a brand new keytar
Tried everything yet
You can’t give up because you haven’t tried everything yet
