[Verse 1]
You were sitting there
Much like a senior in a lounge chair
I wanted comfort but you didn't care
You were too busy doing nothing at all and it isn't fair
When I need you, you just disappear
It's like I'm reliant on your silhouette
That somehow always casts itself on my bedroom wall
[Pre-Chorus 1]
If you have it all
And they have it all
Then I want it all
[Chorus]
And I, I want to steal whatever they make
I try but nothing is real, everything's fake
[Verse 2]
I was laying there
Drunk on the floor because I couldn't stand

If you have it all
And he has it all
Then I want it all
[Chorus]
And I, I want to steal whatever they make
I try but nothing is real, everything's fake
And I, I want to steal whatever they make
I try but nothing is real, everything's fake

You say that I don't get you
I guess that attests to you being away
And I've been sporting my best moves
Trying to impress you and get you to stay
[Chorus]
And I, I want to steal whatever they make
I try but nothing is real, everything's fake
And I, I want to steal whatever they make
I try but nothing is real, everything's fake
[Outro]
And I, I wanna feel the moment I wake
I try but nothing is real
I had the first verse and chorus in my phone voice memos for months before we fleshed this one out. It’s a song about wanting a life that others possess and failing to realise that not everybody’s existence is as amazing as it seems at first glance. It also deals with the envy and sadness of seeing...
