Real Friends – Mess lyrics
[Verse 1]
The patience I once had
Is running away with my youth
Away in it's hand
I've been neglecting who I am
That's just who I was back then
Don't need to be perfect
Just happy
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm still a lost boy
I'm still a lost boy
[Chorus]
Last year, I was a train wreck
Now I'm just a mess
I'm letting go so I don't lose myself
[Verse 2]
Every once in a while
I listen to Death Cab and think
About how it used to be
We thought that we knew the answers
But no one was asking
Asking the questions
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm still a lost boy
I'm still a lost boy
[Chorus]
Last year, I was a train wreck
Now I'm just a mess
I'm letting go so I don't lose myself
I'm starting to be where I need to be
I'm starting to be where I need to be
[Bridge]
It feels like I've been taking the long way
For a while now
Haven't been at home in more years
Than I care to say
I keep letting my past carve out
What the present shouldn't be
What I shouldn't be
[Chorus]
Last year, I was a train wreck
Now I'm just a mess
I'm letting go so I don't lose myself
I'm starting to be where I need to be
I'm starting to be where I need to be
The patience I once had
Is running away with my youth
Away in it's hand
I've been neglecting who I am
That's just who I was back then
Don't need to be perfect
Just happy
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm still a lost boy
I'm still a lost boy
[Chorus]
Last year, I was a train wreck
Now I'm just a mess
I'm letting go so I don't lose myself
[Verse 2]
Every once in a while
I listen to Death Cab and think
About how it used to be
We thought that we knew the answers
But no one was asking
Asking the questions
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm still a lost boy
I'm still a lost boy
[Chorus]
Last year, I was a train wreck
Now I'm just a mess
I'm letting go so I don't lose myself
I'm starting to be where I need to be
I'm starting to be where I need to be
[Bridge]
It feels like I've been taking the long way
For a while now
Haven't been at home in more years
Than I care to say
I keep letting my past carve out
What the present shouldn't be
What I shouldn't be
[Chorus]
Last year, I was a train wreck
Now I'm just a mess
I'm letting go so I don't lose myself
I'm starting to be where I need to be
I'm starting to be where I need to be
