I don’t mean to be a bastard
I just wish some things went faster
Took 3 years but I finally got the roaches out
Took 30 years but I like olives now
I’m fucking over you but
No, you know what?
You don’t even deserve another song
You’ve been gone so long I don’t give a shit about you bye bye!
I got other things on my mind - That’s right!
I’m on my phone swiping, I’m too judgmental
But my fucking weekends have been pretty uneventful
And your vacations got me feeling resentful
It’s fucking psycho fantasizing about every potential
Making every and any interaction monumental
Guess it’s better than being way too sentimental
Cause fuck such n such n so n so those memories are detrimental
Im physically ok right now idk why this shits so stressful
But I don’t even have my Oscar yet how the fuck can I be successful
I’m lying I’m really trying to make moves without being too vengeful
I can’t even rant anymore without getting all gentle
These constant conversations are feeling less temperamental
I am alive and I am doing my best, the rest is consequential
I don’t mean to be a bastard
I just wish some things went faster
Took 3 years but I finally got the roaches out
Took 30 years but I like olives now
