overripe Lyrics

Is the party over

Did I come too late

They're moving all the chairs back

Clearing every single plate

Well I died three times to get here

Tried on everything I own

Been practicing my curtsies

Singing to an empty home

And

All I can hear's that ticking clock

Our mothers warned us not to mock

Sometimes it feels like

I missed the boat so

I tried to swim but

My arms gave out and

I reached the shoreline just past my cue

Shouting "Line? Line? Line?" to an empty room

And the TV tells me

I am just past ripe

Should be bursting at the seams

For a little extra life

Stay a cliche always frozen

At cherubic faced nineteen

Small and insecure

Real submissive and naïve

Oh all I can hear's that ticking clock

Our mothers warned us not to mock

Sometimes it feels like

I missed the boat so

I tried to swim but

My arms gave out and

I reached the shoreline just past my cue

Shouting "Line? Line? Line?" out of time and tune

Don't wanna feel like

Held my breath my whole life

Waiting just to feel right

Getting it all wrong

Only to realize

Ready is an old lie

Fuck your stupid timeline

Was made up all along

Sometimes it feels like

I missed the boat so

I tried to swim but

My arms gave out and

I reached the shoreline just past my cue

Shouting "Line? Line? Line?" to an empty room
