Episode Synopsis

The sixth song on the album "One Day at a Time" (2023).

Lyrics:

Perhaps my parents were misled that I would ever come to something
It’s a small miscalculation that some promise leads to nothing
It’s the end for me forever for there’s nothing left to say
I’ll pack up my things and say goodbye then I’ll be heading on my way

And yes I’m fine
Thank you for asking
Wait? No one was asking?
It’s simply a figment of imagination now
It’s fine I’m a grown up
So nobody showed up
It takes more than absence to bring me down

But just because you’re eighteen doesn’t mean you’ve mastered how to cope
You’ve spent years inside a building with the opposite of hope and now you’re
Suddenly expected to have everything together
That no matter what life throws at you you’ll fix it cus you’re clever

Never mind
Fumble and panic
You’re life’s a titanic
One little bump and you crumble to the ground
Why did nobody tell you
What kind of hell you’d face on this magical merry-go-round

Don’t think that you deserve it
Cus baby you’re worth it
See through the demons that are prowling in the night
Don’t hide on the surface
Cus baby you’re worth it
Dig a little deeper till you start to feel right

I don’t understand you
But at least I can stand you
Which is more than I can say for other people on the Earth
What kind of a person is not very old
And worth his weight in gold
You!

Nobody tells you that this life is made for some
Half the world is full of fishes and the other half is chum
On one hand there’s despair and on the other hand there’s fun
It’s a world where if you’re smart and poor you might as well be dumb

Cus then you won’t know how lamentable your situation is
You’d figure something’s wrong but then you’d fill your life with love and kids
And they inherit all the bad decisions that you ever did
And by the time you’re bored with playing dad you can’t get rid of your mistakes

Roll with the damage
Collect all the baggage
See what a mess you can make of this life

It’s all just a game to you
It’s always the same to you
Then it all ends in a blink of an eye

Don’t think that you deserve it
Cus baby you’re worth it
See through the demons that are prowling in the night
Don’t hide on the surface
Cus baby you’re worth it
Dig a little deeper till you start to feel right

I don’t understand you
But at least I can stand you
Which is more than I can say for other people on the Earth
What kind of a person is not very old
And worth his weight in gold
You!
Ah you!

What kind of a person is not very old
What kind of a person can never be told
You’re kind of a person a sight to behold
And worth his weight in gold
