Lyrics

exhausted

[Verse 1]

Half my friends are wankers

Spending weekends on their drug problems

The other half are bankers

Spending pensions so no one trusts them

I spend half my life on dating apps searching for validation

[Verse 2]

Hotel rooms alone avoiding feeling via masturbation

Wake up every day and check my face, I just look sadder

It’s a never ending race to get up on the housing ladder

And I haven’t seen my sister now for months it’s quite depressing

Inherit harmful traits ‘cause my dad cannot show affection

[Verse 3]

I’m watching both my parents getting old

But I still need them

God knows where I would be without my mum’s shoulder to lean on

And I really miss my childhood, wish that somebody had told me

These moments come once and then they’re gone

[Chorus]

I know that it won’t always be like this

No it won’t always be like this

It won’t always be like this

No it won’t always be like this

[Verse 4]

And honestly I’m feeling like this industry has changed me

I can’t voice half of the thoughts that have been in my head lately

They tie me up in contracts so they think that they have got me

Someone somewhere’s getting richer

All I know is it’s not me

[Verse 5]

And they will not let me drop this song

I’m saying all the wrong things

But I’ll put it out on Soundcloud if they fucking try and stop me

And I will not be quiet until I get my arena tour

Then I’ll smile for fourteen minutes, go home then I’ll cry some more

[Verse 6]

I’m twenty two, I’m also nowhere near where I had hoped I’d be

My friends are on an exodus because none of them can cope with me

I know myself I’m absolutely exhausting to be around

I’ll promise you the world

Then when you call I’ll always let you down

[Chorus]

But it won’t always be like this

No it won’t always be like this

No it won’t always be like this

It won’t always be like this

No it won’t always be like this

No it won’t always be like this

Oh it won’t always be like this

No it won’t always be like this

[Verse 7]

All my friends are wankers, so am I

I still love them

My dad can’t show affection but it’s fine

I still hug him

I’ll be twenty eight and the same as when I was seventeen

Nothing gets better or gets worse, you just feel everything

[Chorus]

But it won’t always be like this

No it won’t always be like this

It won’t always be like this

No it won’t always be like this

Oh it won’t always be like this

No it won’t always be like this

It won’t always be like this

No it won’t always be like this
