Текст пісні
Some nights I wanna get up here and sing a bunch of nonsense
But I know my voice ain't good enough for that lyrics, I know
This is the first song, this is the moment of truth
If this one fails, what good will the rest of 'em do?
I'm tryna stay focused and stay in the moment
But all I can think about is if my flyer is open
I swore I checked it before I went on
Maybe that was last night, I just can't recall
I'd ask you to check for me, but that's asking a lot so
I'm just gonna check real quick and then I'll move on
Oh, you're doing it wrong, dissecting the bird
Tryna find the song
It's a miracle that you're here at all
Oh, oh yeah
I don't trust a musician who's always complaining
It's hard out here, but so is everything
You know what my job was
Before I did this, I used to walk around parking lots picking up trash
Do you know how many people paid to watch me do that?
Zero, always zero
My draw was zero for the trash-pickup job
So even if no one comes to this one, they still let me play guitar
I don't trust a musician who's always complaining
Sometimes it's clear, sometimes it's raining
Sometimes it's the gorge, sometimes it's the garage
Get over yourself, and do your goddamn job, oh
You're doing it wrong, dissecting the bird
Tryna find the song
It's a miracle that you're here at all
Hey
So when the candle flickers, when the days get dark
They call them first world problems, but they still break your heart
The universe feels like it's against you
Just take a minute to realize, all it took to make you
Your parents had to meet, as random as that was
And hang out long enough, at least, to make some love
And make a baby, and give it your name
And all your ancestors had to do the same exponentially backwards
To the start of life
So much had to happen, just exactly right
Sparks had to catch, oceans had to freeze
Billions of cells had to survive, endless disease
Civilizations had to crumble, wars had to be fought
Bad presidents had to get elected, good presidents had to get shot
People had to leave, hearts had to get broken
People had to die, just so your eyes could open
The universe is not against you
The universe is not against you, it went through a lot
Just to give you a chance, it must've wanted you
Pretty bad
No pressure though, no pressure though
The universe went through a lot but no pressure, bro
You don't gotta be perfect, you don't gotta be a saint
Just don't waste it, this was not a mistake
Oh, you're doing it wrong, dissecting the bird
Tryna find the song
It's a miracle that you're here at all
Hey!
Thanks for coming, for sure
No pressure
