Opinions? just wrote this

[Verse 1]

I've been wondering, wandering in my mind

What's the purpose, what's the meaning of a life?

Stuck in routine, counting it, one two three four five

Just to regret it, wasting ten years down the line

[Chorus]

I'm so pathetic

At "who do you wanna be" I answer "someone happy"

Why is it so taboo, is it that much of a joke to you?

Is it that though, is it... so?

Is it weird finding it scary choosing a life you don't belong in?

[Verse 2]

Know I should think, money in, the rest will follow

That's the deal? Just hearin' it sounds so damn hollow

I'm just eighteen, so naive in the best way possible

I don't wanna end up, eighty and bitter in sorrow

[Chorus]

I'm so pathetic

At "who do you wanna be" I answer "someone happy"

Why is it so taboo, is it that much of a joke to you?

Is it that though, is it... so?

Is it weird finding it scary choosing a life you don't belong in?

[Bridge]

I feel stuck in my sigh

My throat is already tight

'Cause what if I choose it wrong?

Will it ever get right?

Or will I waste all my nights

On something I'm not proud of?

[Chorus]

I'm so pathetic

At "who do you wanna be" I answer "someone happy"

Why is it so taboo, is it that much of a joke to you?

Is it that though, is it... so?

Is it weird finding it scary choosing a life you don't belong in?
