[Verse 1]
I've been missing appointments
And birthdays, and sunsets
I've been watching too many movies
That do not pass the Bechdel Test
And that makes me feel like I am a bad feminist
But I pirate them
So that makes it better, I guess

I've been trying to soul search
And write more, and de-stress
I've been clinging to hope like a guard rail
Like a life vest
And I've been asking everyone
"How long do you think the ache will last?"
They don't know yet

[Chorus]
Can something be prescribed to me?
I don't like getting high
But there's a game of Operation in my skull
The bittersweet, the apathy
The back-up plans and stolen dreams
I'm trying to see the genius of it all

[Verse 2]
But I've been losing my balance
My cell phone, and good sleep
I've been googling the best manifestation techniques
And I've been taking quizzes based in pop psychology
And they're always a let down
But I've never been easy to please
[Chorus]
I'm steeping in anxiety
I'm teetering on a tightrope
And I'm waiting for the moment when I'll fall
The bittersweet, the apathy
The back-up plans and stolen dreams
I'm trying to see the genius of it all
I'm trying to see the genius of it all
I'm trying to see the genius of it all

[Outro]
But I've been missing appointments
And birthdays, and sunsets
I've been watching too many movies...
