In the city
Yeah you're so pretty
You could be the one
You could be the hundred
But you're busy
You're always so busy
And when it's not you
It's going to be some other
Spinning plates they fall and break
Like they never even span at all
Just one push is all it takes
To see you on the floor
When you're broken, braised
Or losing faith
Or climbing the walls
So many have been there before
There are worse things in the world to be than alone
And it's silly
To be always so willing
When you compromise on all that you believe
They're just quick fixed
They have no meaning
And they leave you hungry inside
Wondering what you need
When you see your reflection
But can't look them in the eye
And you can't take rejection
You just have to change their mind
Real life has no filter
All those pictures are a lie
So many are wasting their time
There are worse things in the world to be than alone
