Rustage - Stressed Out Lyrics
— Song Lyrics 'Stressed Out' by Rustage
Took a boat and I'm lost at sea
I been keeping my head down
Cannot cope with my endless dreams
On the edge and I'm stressed out
Reconstruct every piece of me
I'm filled with self-doubt
Too afraid, I can't leave it be
On the edge and I'm stressed out
Uh
Past the point of no return, I'm a lost cause
Take a look at what I've earned with my art form
The fight inside, you can still burn [?]
Look into my past more, this is what I've asked for
My emotions make no sense to me
I thought I would be happy when reveling in prosperity
So then I feel ungrateful when it's painful that you question me
Why's my work the only thing that's forming my identity
I don't deserve all the praise
When I'm making this music that's average at best (no)
I don't deserve all the people
That watch me and help with my rampant success (uh)
I can keep on grinding but I'm finding that
I'm fearing what will happen if I pause or take a break
I will keep on smiling through the quiet
And I'm trying to be better but I feel like I'm a fake
Took a boat and I'm lost at sea
I been keeping my head down
Cannot cope with my endless dreams
On the edge and I'm stressed out
Reconstruct every piece of me
I'm filled with self-doubt
Too afraid, I can't leave it be
On the edge and I'm stressed out
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Sometimes I'm proud of it, loving the sound of it
But I get embarrassed when it's played in front of crowds, cut it
I don't care if they love it, that my sound is same
But it's hard for me to tell if all my music sounds the same, does it?
I feel guilty when I'm reading all this feedback
All these people like it but [?] see that
When my peers say I'm good I don't know if they mean that
Maybe I've forgotten how it feels to just relax
Non-stop every day today
I hate to say I'm starting to waste away
[?] frightened to take a break
It's way too late, I'm fighting to tame the strain
The pain betrays, I'm sure that I'm just lazy, I'm a whiny kid
Acting like a baby when all I need is an iron fist
I be feeling crazy, don't know my knees like it's hieroglyphs
I've achieved my dreams but look at me and what it finally did
Took a boat and I'm lost at sea
I been keeping my head down
Cannot cope with my endless dreams
On the edge and I'm stressed out
Reconstruct every piece of me
I'm filled with self-doubt
Too afraid, I can't leave it be
On the edge and I'm stressed out
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Shut up, shut up
I been thinking too much, I wish it could all just shut up
Shut up, shut up
Acting like there's something wrong, really I need to shut up
Shut up, shut up
I been thinking too much, I wish it could all just shut up
Shut up, shut up
Acting like there's something wrong, really I need to shut up
Took a boat and I'm lost at sea
I been keeping my head down
Cannot cope with my endless dreams
On the edge and I'm stressed out
Reconstruct every piece of me
I'm filled with self-doubt
Too afraid, I can't leave it be
On the edge and I'm stressed out
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
(Look at what I am, an impostor with a fake grin)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
(I don't understand, should be happy but I hate this)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (shut up, shut up)
(Look at what I am, an impostor with a fake grin)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (shut up, shut up)
(I don't understand, should be happy but I hate this)
