Candle-Lit and Nervous

I've been feeling hopeless Candle-lit & nervous Like a movie scene but not so glamorous Still don't have a purpose Main Character Motive Just out of our teens and never growing up Yeah my voice ain't broke and I still can't tie my shoes And my grandparents are still watching the BBC News And my phone it hasn't died because it's bigger than you And I'm not terrified that this planet could really die And my first thought wasn't "hey man can i have your wi-fi?" It was taking off my shoes cos well now that's just polite I've been feeling hopeless Candle-lit & nervous Like a movie scene but not so glamorous Still don't have a purpose Main Character Motive Just out of our teens and never growing up Die for our perspective While being deflective Still believe in memes more than our own government Kinda love that's hopeless Can't tie down emotions Just out of our teens and never growing up And I've been 'rocking kicks' like it's still 2006 And I've been singing tik tok rather than scrolling on it And now my dream girl can take me to an MCR Gig I'm not saying that I'm not a modernist I just like To reminisce and take the piss, Chill out and look at some vines Maybe instead of drinking lean we could just sip on some wine I've been feeling hopeless Candle-lit & nervous Like a movie scene but not so glamorous Still don't have a purpose Main Character Motive Just out of our teens and never growing up Die for our perspective While being deflective Still believe in memes more than our own government Kinda love that's hopeless Can't tie down emotions Just out of our teens and never growing up Just wanna go to bed You really should have said Just wanna go to bed You really should have said Just wanna go to bed You really should have said --- Candle-Lit and Nervous - Cameron Sanderson
