I hate the things I do
And all the shit I put you through
It’s tragic, I’m static
I am the world’s worst
I am my own worst enemy
And I hate me
Most days I can’t believe I’m still here
Most days I’m surprised
You want a new life
I wanna do what’s right by you
But I can’t seem to get my shit together
Not ever, no matter how hard I try
I never seem to get it right
I’m sick of having you depend on me
Cause I’ll let you down like I always do
I am the world’s worst
I am my own worst
It’s crazy you stuck with me
Most days I can’t believe you’re still here
Most days you cry
You want a new lie
I wanna do what’s right by you
But I can’t seem to get my shit together
Not ever, no matter how hard I try
I never seem to get it right
And through all the times we’ve had
I never saw what you saw in me
Through all the times we’ve tried
I could never be what you needed of me
But I wish I were
You want a new line
I wanna do what’s right by you
But I can’t seem to get my shit together
Not ever, no matter how hard I try
I never seem to get it right
I still remember how I made you feel
I still remember how I made you feel
Once upon a time
whenever I hear this song I can't help but think of the relationship I have with my mom. she's done everything she can to help me and I just feel like a huge burden on her life and on the rest of my family. The only way I know how to keep them from hurting and stressing over me because of my problems is to not tell them - to hide myself from them. I see the way it brings her down on nights that she can't remember but she tells me how she really feels - and she cries because nothing helps. and when I get a little better it's short term and it's back to where I started. she doesn't deserve to feel so overwhelmed and sad over her own child all the damn time.. and she's the best I have. if it weren't for her, I would have been long gone and I'm forever grateful for her. but I know how tired she is and how stressed and sad she is all because of me
Tragician is fast becoming my favorite track on 'Stomachaches'. The "no matter how hard I try" bit stays stuck in my head for hours on end and I'm enamored with the guitar. Also got to be the best song on the album for driving on the turnpike!
okay i saw fiatc live and met modern chem and thgc and i met frank (and my friend was like face to face with evan lmao) and when they played tragician it was fucking amazing like most artists dont sound that good live but holy shit they blew me away
Ok I need to stop relating everything to mcr but even if this was a fob video id have to say for the first few secs it sounded like I'm not okay because it does ffs
person: what level of emo are you omfgee. i dont think you can go higher than that!
me:*shows them this song* whoa nvm. that is another level of emo.
me: kicks their teeth in
(I spend most of my days and most of my nights chasing tomorrow)
