☆⠀⠀"small world, forget my name" try is about doing your best and still feeling like it isn't, and will never be enough. i wrote it about the pressure to prove yourself, to keep up, and to try and stay hopeful even when you feel replaceable or left behind, especially as an artist. it's about feeling on the verge of giving up, but showing up anyway, even when you're tired, unsure, and still figuring out where you belong and how faithful people actually are to you. i've included an easter egg; if you stay till the end, there's a pop up button with a small reference to the lyrics ^^ ☆⠀⠀credits ⠀voice: me! ⠀lyrics: me :) ⠀gif concept/idea: @lychiez ⠀mixing, vocal fx: me, on bandlab ⠀cover art/thumbnail: guess who ⠀instrumental: lonewolf on youtube ⠀button code & design: meeeee ☆⠀⠀lyrics Why~ (I'm still) Dead inside (God, I) I~ Try~ God, I try Know I'm the fantasy for most Still have my voice to boast Dont cry, if you never try I~ try~ Nothing that I do will ever be good enough Ah~ Why~ (I'm still) Dead inside (God, I) I~ Try~ God, I try (Good, but not quite good enough) If you ain't gonna let me out, I don't care Nothing that I do will ever compare And I know that they're better Used more hours, use more care!
