about

Song about growing up and getting older
new mic and melodica! I wrote it this summer and finally recorded it right.

lyrics

My first thought was
Ill never get a white wedding
Something I was never sad about before

I never planned it out when I was young
Or played it on my bedroom floor like Anna did
But now I’m feeling robbed

So why am I invested in a 50’s theme
White Pickett fence
suburbia dream
I never wanted that anyway


Plead mercy
Im not scared to use the unrelenting will
That I’ve hidden behind my back


And first off
I dont believe in divine power
Except the one they holds in their hands


So I brush it off
I let you off the hook again
So why am I invested in a 50’s theme
White Pickett fence
suburbia dream
I never wanted that

So you love who you love
And they’ll say what they say
at the end of the day x3

So why am I invested in a 50’s theme
White Pickett fence
American girl dream
I never wanted that anyway


I never wanted that
