I wanna do something other
Than sit back and wait
For time to pass
And good to come my way

I wanna do something other
Than scroll on my phone
Search for a contact,
Realise I'm alone

I wanna do something other
Than stay cooped up
In the asylum where I raised myself
When they were busy filling other shelves

I wanna do something other
Than think about you
Think about your promises
That were meant to be true

All my mornings are Mondays stuck in an endless February
I took the miracle move-on drug but the effects were temporary
