Arlo Parks - Sophie Lyrics

Arlo Parks Lyrics

"Sophie"

I talk to girls that sings about asphyxiation
Until their beer goes flat
I talk to girls that brings their switchblades to the function
And dye their buzzcuts black

Shut your mouth and take your vitamins
Bite your nails and sell your Ritalin
I feel like the world is on my back
Shut your mouth and take your vitamins
Bite your nails and sell your Ritalin
I feel like the world is on its back

I'm just a kid, I
Suffocate and slip, I
Hate that we're all sick
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm just a kid, I
Suffocate and slip, I
Hate that we're all sick (Yeah)

I'm blowing bubbles in the faces of thugs
I'm smoking licorice tobacco for lunch, yeah
I'm still denying that I'm anxious as fuck
And I'm lacking in trust and I think my art sucks (It sucks)
I look inside my head with disgust
I would say it to my mates, but they're probably drunk
So I listen to funk, I bend to the punch
Then pretend that I'm fine when, really, I'm crushed

Shut your mouth and take your vitamins
Bite your nails and sell your Ritalin
I feel like the world is on my back
Shut your mouth and take your vitamins
Bite your nails and sell your Ritalin
I feel like the world is on its back

I'm just a kid, I
Suffocate and slip, I
Hate that we're all sick
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm just a kid, I
Suffocate and slip, I
Hate that we're all sick

Ya-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Ya-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Ya-da-da, da-da, da-da-dum
Yeah
