Tempo: Slow, moody Indie-Pop
[Intro - 15s]
(A steady, pulsing bass line or a lonely piano melody)
[Verse 1 - 30s]
A lot of mess is going 'round
The wheels are turning, but I’m lost in the sound
I’m spinning circles, don’t know where to go
My soul is tired, and it’s starting to show
They say: "Don’t wait for your feelings to shift"
Just take the action, and give yourself a lift
Take the first step, and the heart follows through
But it’s harder to do when you haven’t a clue.
[Pre-Chorus - 15s]
Because the more I know of who I am
The less I’ll break, the more I’ll stand
But I’m still drifting, I’m still far away
From the person I’m meant to be today.
[Chorus - 30s]
How can I expect an answer from you?
When I don’t even know my own truth
A "yes" or a "no," it doesn’t really matter
When my own mind is a glass about to shatter
It’s complicated, it’s confusing, it’s a blur
The answers I need... I’m not even sure.
[Verse 2 - 30s]
I’m chasing the "Perfect"—it’s a heavy demand
The perfect timing, the perfect band
A perfect partner for a perfect dance
Caught in the pull of a perfect romance
The perfect crowd at the perfect party
A perfect ending where the kiss feels hearty
But it’s a daydream, a cinematic lie
While the real world is just passing me by.
[Chorus - 30s]
How can I expect an answer from you?
When I don’t even know my own truth
A "yes" or a "no," it doesn’t really matter
When my own mind is a glass about to shatter
It’s complicated, it’s confusing, it’s a blur
The answers I need... I’m not even sure.
[Bridge - 30s]
The quest that’s in me is only for me
An intoxication, a salt-water sea
It’s mixed in my blood, it’s under my skin
How do I love myself? Where do I begin?
Why is respect such a mountain to climb?
I’m stuck in my head, just killing the time
I can’t say goodbye to the overthinking
While the ship I’m on is slowly sinking.
[Guitar/Instrumental Solo - 20s]
(Energy builds up, then drops back down for the final chorus)
[Final Chorus - 30s]
(Full energy)
How can I expect an answer from you?
When I don’t even know my own truth!
A "yes" or a "no," it doesn’t really matter
When my own mind is a glass about to shatter
It’s complicated, it’s confusing, it’s a blur
The answers I need... I’m not even sure.
[Outro - 20s]
The quest is in me...
(Overthinking, never saying goodbye)
Just take the action...
(The feelings will change)
A lot of mess going 'round...
(Fade out on a single, echoing note)
