Name: staying upright
Duration: P00H01M31S
Description: Almost an extension of the previous song in theme, this song is about the ever mounting pressure centred around the idolatry of age, and feeling shit about yourself for ageing and not being some kind of young person superstar that gets all the clicks and the DLs. Some kind of mid-twenties crisis song and self pitying slogan.

lyrics

no longer tongue tied
i never found anyone to fit me
u feel like an alien, but rly
i never made "it" happen
turning 24, getting older
nothing to show for it
i could never be a cohesive creator
with all this spare time, wasted
i scold myself
i scold myself
i scold myself
every day
for being nothing
for being nothing at all
