I've been working on this one on and off for over two years. That doesn't mean this track is any better than it otherwise would be, it's just a long time haha. I consider myself much more a producer than a vocalist, but these lyrics about procrastinating were very fun to sing/write.
The universal struggle of putting things off and resorting to more easily available sources of dopamine such as social media and alcohol is exactly what this song aims to embody. Although not offering a complete solution to the problem that plagues my own productivity, this song is sure to take the listener on a journey filled with ear candy melodies, funky bass lines and dreamy chords.
I hope you enjoy, and I cannot wait to deliver the full album to you in a few weeks.
Stay complex,
Mitch
lyrics
Wasted
Scrolling
In your facebook comments trolling
I could do more if I tried
I could do more but, why why why why
Working
So jaded
I think I'm more productive faded
I could do more but why
When it's so easy just to
Run and hide
Keep it all inside
The same excuses
Always justified
The place that you least wanna look in
That's where you'll find
Ev everything
Ev everything
Ev everything, everything you need
Ev everything, all that you could be
Days they
Just fly by
Still feel like I'm winning when I get high
But somehow I'm outta time
And I don't even know why why why why
This feeling
Frustrating
Kinda terrible and amazing
And now I'm outta time
Cuz its so easy just to
Run and hide
Keep it all inside
The same excuses
Always justified
The place that you least wanna look in
That's where you'll find
Ev everything
Ev everything
Ev everything, ev everything
Ev everything
Ev everything
Ev everything
Ev everything, everything you need
Ev everything, all that you could be
Everything
Everything you need
All that you could be
Ev everything
