Gideon Bratland, NF - My Best Friend Wants To Hug Me lyrics
[Gideon Bratland, NF - My Best Friend Wants To Hug Me lyrics]
Drifting watchin' the world go 'round
World go, yeah (world go, yeah) listening
To unfamiliar feelings and unknown sounds
Unknown sounds, unknown sounds
Slippin' through my fingertips
(ayy) , lingerin' shoulda, woulda, coulda
Where'd I put the pen? (Woah)
Make a list of all my failed attempts
Runnin' out of space again
Highlight all the things I wish I never said
(stop) if feeling makes you stronger
I'm the weakest
That would mean that I would have
To separate from my beliefs
It's not a secret, I'm a puzzle
Got a lot of missin' pieces
Underneath this strong persona I put
On's a kid that's screamin'
Aren't these waters so decеivin'?
(So deceivin')
They look diffеrent, don't they?
Well, at least that's how they seem to me
'Cause we just drift and drift and drift
Until we see something that
We define as peaceful
Grab the needle, shoot reminders in my veins
That people leave you while I'm driftin'
Watchin' the world go 'round
World go, yeah (world go, yeah) listening
To unfamiliar feelings and unknown sounds
Unknown sounds, unknown sounds
Lots of gossip, I've been watchin' you
How you're talkin' to yourself is rude
Driftin', I'm in the same boat as you
Sinkin', dreamin', screamin' for some truth
And (my, my) escalator's broke, I'll take the stairs, I guess
Climb until I'm outta breath
Questioning my every step (whoa)
My train of thought is leading
Me to different tracks
Positive that where I'm at is not
Where I should stay and that's (why)
Told you look into the mirror and say
"I love you"
Convince yourself that no one in the
World would ever want to
Passin' by the people that have
Been there to support you
From the get-go, disrespectful
Drive you mental
Might get stressful when I'm driftin'
I see you in the distance
Askin' me why I'm so distant, I'm convicted
I'm convinced that I predict
That all my wishes
On my wish list won't be heard
'Cause, I'm committed to the lie
That feeling safe is unrealistic
When I'm driftin'
Watchin' the world go 'round
World go, yeah (world go, yeah) listening
To unfamiliar feelings and unknown sounds
Unknown sounds, unknown sounds
Ignorant to my ignorance
Tell me I'm worth it, God
Give me the faith to rise
And help me diversify
To take a step forward
Immersed in my belligerence, amplified
The feelings and words collide
Intensified by living a life deprived
I'd rather be burned alive
Than go back to thinkin' I'm insignificant
(insignificant)
Every impotent moment debated can trigger it
God is my witness definitive
Holdin' my head up
There isn't an innocent bone in my body
But that's what gives me the energy lacked
To renovate, have to innovate
Past intimidates can't remain afraid
World go, yeah (world go, yeah) listening
To unfamiliar feelings and unknown sounds
Unknown sounds, unknown sounds
Slippin' through my fingertips
(ayy) , lingerin' shoulda, woulda, coulda
Where'd I put the pen? (Woah)
Make a list of all my failed attempts
Runnin' out of space again
Highlight all the things I wish I never said
(stop) if feeling makes you stronger
I'm the weakest
That would mean that I would have
To separate from my beliefs
It's not a secret, I'm a puzzle
