Lizzy McAlpine - The Long Haul lyrics

The back seat of a car on the highway
The feeling that I'm tumbling sideways
The long haul to the house that is silent
The art of waiting getting lost in the quiet

My mother making sure that I'm okay
The things I love
Should not be treating me this way
I want to give up I want to retire
I hate my music, hate feeling uninspired

I did everything for a reason
Now I don't know if it matters at all
I try to say things that have a meaning
Now I don't know if they matter at all
Now I don't know if they matter at all

I am stuck here in a loop that
Feels like it will never end you won't hear
Half of these songs until I can't stand them

I know I should be hopeful
Trust that it will all work out
And I do, but please just let me
Be a child right now

I did everything for a reason
Now I don't know if it matters at all
I try to say things that have a meaning
Now I don't know if they matter at all
Oh, oh, oh

I am stuck here in a loop that
Feels like it will never end you won't hear
Half of these songs until I can't stand them

I know I should be hopeful
Trust that it will all work out and I do but
Please just let me be a child right now
