I've been thinking 'bout quitting
I don't think I'm gonna do it
But I've been thinking 'bout quitting
17-year-old me probably wouldn't believe
That I've thinking 'bout quitting
After all of the hours that I spent getting good
I've been thinking 'bout quitting
[Chorus]
I've been thinking 'bout quitting
I used to love this, now I love this less
And I've been scared to get this off my chest
Afraid of who I might let down if I decide to put to rest
The life I'm living
But I've been thinking 'bout quitting
[Verse]
It comes in waves, but the waves come stronger and more often
I've been reading about how burning out is not uncommon
But I never thought it'd happen to mе
So young and full of so much promise
But if I'm honest
[Chorus]
I used to lovе this, now I love this less
And I've had trouble filling up my chest
With the air I need to live because I'm anxious and I'm stressed
Beyond my limits
So, I've been thinking 'bout quitting
[Bridge]
And I tell myself I'm a loser who can't take when things get hard
I'm my own worst abuser
But I guess most people are
And I've already come this far
It'd be a waste to not just finish
[Chorus]
But I've been thinking 'bout quitting
I don't think I'm gonna do it
But I used to love this, now I love this less
I don't know what I would do instead
So, I'll probably just convince myself that sticking with its best
And try forgetting
That I've been thinking 'bout quitting
