About

Track 6 off Instant Gratification.

This tells the tale of a poor boy that has their confidence torn down by a backstabbing friend.

This is one of the few songs by the band where there are almost no unclean vocals until the breakdown at the end. Instead it is driven almost completely by Tillian’s c...

Awkward Lyrics

[Verse 1: Tilian]
I've got style, I work harder than anyone
And I can do it while I'm having fun
Yeah, I'ma get, I'ma get, I'ma get-get better

[Pre-Chorus: Tilian]
I want to be, I want to be somebody
I'm gonna be somebody
I'm gonna be somebody

[Chorus: Tilian]
Now, now, slow your roll
(Slow your roll)
Keep your head low
(Keep your head low)
Your life is a joke
(Your life is a joke)
Don't make this awkward
Lay back in the fold
(Lay back in the fold)
Can't make it alone
(Can't make it alone)
You're too fucking old
(You're too fucking old)
Don't make this awkward

[Verse 2: Tilian]
Now and then
I get a little bit full of myself and start dreaming, I can't help it
But you're a friend
You keep my feet on the ground and my head out of the clouds
Show me how to doubt myself
And who knows where I'd be without you

[Chorus: Tilian, Jon Mess]
Now, now, slow your roll
(Slow your roll)
Keep your head low
(Keep your head low)
Your life is a joke
(Your life is a joke)
Don't make this awkward
(The belief is a burden and a crop)
Lay back in the fold
(Lay back in the fold)
Can't make it alone
(Can't make it alone)
You're too fucking old
(You're too fucking old)
Don't make this awkward
(Now the dream is only a memory)

[Breakdown: Jon Mess]
Cry, mine is mine
I clamp my head in the crease of a familiar smell
I think the tree is a thief
I'm frying everything that incubates and ever was
Simmer 15 rips before I croak and die
I flipped that maggot out
I sniffed that dragon's brew
I say I'm feeling it when everyone is on my side
We think we're relevant
Hey, we think we're being admired

[Bridge: Tilian, Jon Mess]
Now and then
I get a little bit full of myself and start dreaming, I can't help it
It's slipping into this
All of you, all the heads inside the hole of cause
We're getting intimate, it's a flu in a vein
How do we disconnect from the arm?
Am I a fool not to run?
You're nicotine in my lungs
How can I trust anyone but you?

[Chorus: Tilian, Jon Mess]
Now, now, slow your roll
(Slow your roll)
Keep your head low
(Keep your head low)
Your life is a joke
(Your life is a joke)
Don't make this awkward
(The belief is a burden and a crop)
Lay back in the fold
(Lay back in the fold)
Can't make it alone
(Can't make it alone)
You're too fucking old
(You're too fucking old)
Don't make this awkward
(Now the dream is only a memory)
