Jaded
Look around the room, my hands in need of something to do
You know, I hate it
Scrolling through my phone, gimme something else to consume, oh do you do it too?
You know I wish I that didn’t care and
I tell myself not to compare but
I’m hooked on the dopamine
I get high on the jealousy
Post a pic just to get away from
All the bullshit in my brain
And I know that it’s stupid
But somehow I do it
Over and over and over and over again
I been stuck here in the middle of it
Double tapping on a photo again
And I know that it’s stupid
But somehow I do it
Over and over again
So frustrated
Tell me what do I gotta do to feel good enough?
Why do I need the validation?
Always seeking, searching, chasing down another rush, then another one, and then another one
You know I wish I that didn’t care and
I tell myself not to compare but
I’m hooked on the dopamine
I get high on the jealousy
Post a pic just to get away from
All the bullshit in my brain
And I know that it’s stupid
But somehow I do it
Over and over and over and over again
I been stuck here in the middle of it
Double tapping on a photo again
And I know that it’s stupid
But somehow I do it
Over and over again
