Valley - Paper Cup (sorry for myself)

They say that it gets better, just get over the hump
But I hate the East Coast weather and the person I've become
Every day the band might break up and no therapist can help
But this is me just feelin' sorry for myself
SNL and Fallon seemed easy at eighteen
Everyone's your biggest fan until the day you don't succeed
And I know I sound dramatic and ungrateful for my health
But this is me just feelin' sorry for myself

I wish that I was small enough
To drown inside this paper cup
And nobody would find me
No need for feelin' lonely
No cryin' over cards I've been dealt
Or feelin' sorry for myself

I just can't seem to go vegan, and the world, it hates my guts
I wish that I could call up Jesus, tell him what the fuck is up
I'm Peter Pan whose lost his magic, all my youth fell off a shelf
But this is me just feelin' sorry for myself
Yeah, I ask a lot of questions like, "Will Karah fall in love?
Will Alex find the right girl, will Mickey get another job?"
'Cause I can't even write a pop song, I can only storytell
So this is me just feelin' sorry for myself

I wish that I was small enough
To drown inside this paper cup
And nobody would find me
No need for feelin' lonely
No cryin' over cards I've been dealt
Or feelin' sorry for myself

My love language is nothin', maybe I just need a hug
If you're listenin' to this song, just know you're my parachute, you're my blood
And I know it's not the end, only time can tell
But this is me, and I know I'm kinda boring
And I'm borderline annoying
But this is me feelin' sorry for myself

(They say that it gets better)
(Why'd you call me?)
(I can't even steer and drive)
