Lord Help Me (So Basic) Lyrics

Lord help me I'm so basic

They should put me down

Been trying to hang around with this crowd

Where that's not allowed

I got the wrong look

And I know how it scans

But I thought if I played it right

They still might let me in the band

I'm too old for feelin' how I am

In this economy

Trying to hit the lottery

When it's a scam

In dizzy motion

Still busy hopin'

I can open what is closed

While holdin' onto childish tropes

You know it

No one understands

Lord help me I'm so basic

They should put me down

Trying to hang around with this crowd

Where that's not allowed

I got the wrong look

It won't align with their brand

Oh no

But I thought if I played it right

They still might greet me in the stands

I've got to get closure

And lots to get over

When these shoulders start to get colder

I say it's alright

Then spiral out and analyze it

The whole night

It's a process though

Try to see it

Philosophical

Feelin' unreasonable

What I've got is a bit out of season

I know what they say I can't start to believe it

Or maybe it's just all in my head

Growing poison trees from seeds of what some people said

Lord help me I'm so basic

They should put me down

Trying to hang around with this crowd

Where that's not allowed

I got the wrong look

Look I do what I can

I just thought if I played it right

They just might meet me where I am
