[Verse 1]
Maybe I'm not doing this right
Maybe I'm trying too hard
Maybe I stepped off my path
I guess I'll never know
Maybe I'm better off alone
Maybe I'm seeing it wrong
Maybe I should take a break
I guess it'll come itself
[Chorus]
I'm stressed out (I am stressed out)
I should chill out (I should chill out)
I'm freaking out (I'm freaking out)
I should wait a while
[Verse 2]
I took a deep long breath
Walked away, cleared my head
I thought about your problems, too
We can make it through
[Chorus]
We're stressed out (We are stressed out)
We should chill out (We should chill out)
We are freaking out (We're freaking out)
We should wait a while
[Bridge]
(Ooh) And I know that it's tough
(Ooh) To work so hard to make it right
(Ooh) And I know that it's tough
(Ooh) To not know, what's coming next
We're stressed out
We think we can't chill out
We're all freaking out
We should wait a while
[Chorus]
We're stressed out (We are stressed out)
We should chill out (We should chill out)
We are freaking out (We're freaking out)
We should wait a while
We're stressed out (We are stressed out)
We think we can't chill out (We should chill out)
We're all freaking out (We're freaking out)
We wait a while

[Verse 1]
Love doesn't really exist
We're just broken people looking for a way to live
Searching for another, wondering through messy world
And look what we've got
It might be just a glance
We see it in their eyes, but we're too shy to ask
Maybe it's another lost bet, long shot
Do you care to chase that?
[Chorus]
These feeling won't be back
So enjoy them while they last
There's a one to seven billion chance
You'll be happy for the rest of your life
[Verse 2]
The number's rising
Even though it's a feeling one of a kind you're asking
Was it really as unique, as special as you used to thought?
You realise not
We meet through mistakes
Falling blindy for every single word we exchange
What a waste of eloquent lies, did they come out my mouth?
Are they really mine? I can't look in my eyes
[Chorus]
These feelings won't be back
So enjoy them while they last
There's a one to seven billion chance
You'll be happy for the rest of your life
[Bridge]
But if you happen to find
Someone who's as fucked up
[Outro]
Please be happy, please be kind
Don't ever leave them, speak your mind
Share your secrets, work through fights
Please stay always by their side
Please be honest, have their back
Say you love them with all your heart
With all your heart
With all your heart

not enough

[Verse 1]
Today I cried
So much on my mind, I just can't
Yet you call
I forget all that 'cause you cry
[Pre-Chorus]
You don't even have to say a word
I know right away something's wrong
[Chorus]
It tears me apart
To hear you like that
I give all I can
Thinking this isn't fair
Still, it's not enough
It seems I can't mend your heart
[Verse 2]
I have been
Through so much shit in my life, you know
I even thought
I can talk and walk you through the worst
[Pre-Chorus]
You don't even have to say a word
I know right away everything's wrong
[Chorus]
It tears me apart
To hear you like that
I give all I can
Thinking this isn't fair
I would pay any price
For you to feel fine
I'm trying to find right words
Strongest, truest I know
Still, I'm not strong enough
It seems I can't mend your heart

[Verse 1]
You talk, but I'm not listening
I am holding all together
I feel like I'm losing something
You ask if it is November yet
[Chorus]
I'm trying hard not to fall apart
If I say a word I will break my heart
[Verse 2]
You look but I'm avoiding your eyes
They would see through mine
You would recognize their emptiness
You would see a straight line
[Chorus]
I'm trying hard not to fall apart
If I say a word I will break my heart
I'm trying hard not to fall apart
If I say a word I will break my heart
[Bridge]
Don't ask me what's wrong
I won't tell you
'Cause everything's wrong
In my head
[Chorus]
I'm trying hard not to fall apart
If I say a word I will break my heart
I'm trying hard not to fall apart
If I say a word I will break my heart

[Verse 1]
Yeah, it started as a crush
But it ended up with I don't know what
I'm looking at you now
You're a person I don't recognize
I don't know where did you go
Or what took you so long
But I'm sure that you've left me here
All alone
[Chorus]
Don't expect from me
I will run run into your arms
Don't think that I still
Like you that much
Don't grin like we're the same
As those kids we used to be
Don't act like it's a thing
It means nothing to me
Mmm
[Verse 2]
Yeah, there was a time
When I would die for that smile
But everything has changed
We are just friends
So just move on and hush
I won't be your crush
[Chorus]
Don't expect from me
I will run into your arms
Don't think that I still
Like you that much
Don't grin like we're the same
As those kids we used to be
Don't act like it's a thing
It means nothing to me
Nothing to me
[Bridge]
I know you're used to people falling in love with you
But you forget that I got to know the real you
I'm not gonna look at you and see a perfect boy
'Cause you like to play games but I am not a toy
[Chorus]
So don't expect from me
I will run into your arms
Don't think that I still
Like you that much
Don't grin like we're the same
As those kids we used to be
Don't act like it's a thing
It means nothing to me
[Outro]
I won't be your crush
(Okay!)

Cynka Poland
I use simple words to express my complex thoughts to the tunes of what some would call bedroom pop (maybe because I record
it in my bedroom or maybe because I can’t play anything besides basic chords on the ukulele and guitar).
I put my heart and soul on YouTube first and now I’m putting them here, hoping that somebody will find themselves in them, too.
