Not done

Woke up tired of my own thoughts
Scrolling through my life like it’s someone else’s
Everybody says I look fine
But I’m barely holding it together

Talking to walls at 2 a.m.
Like they’re the only ones that listen
I laugh in rooms full of people
But I’ve never felt more distant

Pre-Chorus
I’ve been stuck in my head for too long
Turning every small thing into a war
Waiting for a version of me
That doesn’t feel this lost anymore

Chorus (sad, modern)
I’m so tired of feeling behind
Like I missed something everyone else got
I’m tired of pretending I’m good
When I’m really just trying not to fall apart

⸻

Verse 2
I’ve been comparing myself to strangers
Watching them live the life I wanted
Every “almost” feels like a reminder
Of everything I still haven’t done yet

I keep saying “I’ll figure it out”
But I don’t even know what that means
I just know I don’t want to stay here
Feeling like a background scene

Pre-Chorus 2
All these mistakes I keep replaying
Were just lessons I learned the hard way
Maybe I’m not where I thought I’d be
But I’m still here, I’m still awake

Chorus 2 (bigger)
I’m so tired of feeling behind
Like I’m running in place every year
I’m done with hating my reflection
For not looking like someone else’s career

⸻

Bridge (the flip)
Maybe I don’t need a glow up
Maybe I just need to breathe
Maybe I’ve been chasing approval
From people who don’t know me

I survived every version of myself
That thought it couldn’t go on
If I made it through that phase
Why would I quit now?

⸻

Final Chorus (confident, modern anthem)
I’m not behind, I’m just early
On a life that actually fits me
I don’t need to go viral
To know I’m doing something real

I turned anxiety into momentum
Turned pressure into my fuel
I’m not perfect, I’m just present
And that’s already something new

⸻

Outro
I’m not done yet
I’m just getting started
Even if I don’t have it figured out
I’m finally moving forward
