Maybe

trains keep running

hearts keep breaking

i keep writing songs

about things

that are out of my control

but i pretend they're not

and then wonder why

the outcome's not what i planned for

oh cos lately

i tend to answer with

maybe

cos commitment seems so

scary

and i miss just being

bored

i swear baby

im not the one thats

crazy

you say that im just too

picky

but theres too much on my plate

i've never been the one to spend hours together

i love my friends but i like silence even better and

i love my parents but i can't keep all my promises yeah

maybe i should start thinking less

live my life how it fits me best

cut off all the ones who cannot comprehend that

maybe

i'm not doing well

and maybe

it's not about them

oh cos

lately

i tend to answer with

maybe

cos commitment seems so

scary

and i miss just being

bored

i swear baby

im not the one thats

crazy

you say that im just too

picky

but theres too much on my plate

here's my promise

to myself and whoever is bothered

by the fact that i don't know how to say yes or no

that i need control and that i cannot

just let it go so

i promise

i'll take the pills that you feed me

i promise

i'll let go of the parts of myself that i like

i'll be focused and nice

perfect slave to the system we're in
