Sapita Music - Afterthought

I'm feeling like an afterthought
In every shape and form
What happened on some weekends
Quickly turned into the norm
Not looking for attention
Try weathering the storm
'Cause hail and hot water
Only makes it lukewarm
Not sure if it's the city
Or just being an adult
Maybe everyone's too busy
Maybe none of it's my fault
But lately, I can't help but thinking
Now I'm just an afterthought
I can't help but thinking
That I'm just an afterthought

I said
I'm feeling like an afterthought
In every shape and form
What happened on some weekends
Quickly turned into the norm
Not looking for attention
Try weathering the storm
'Cause hail and hot water
Only makes it lukewarm
Not sure if it's the city
Or just being an adult
Maybe everyone's too busy
Maybe none of it's my fault
But I can't help but thinking
Now I'm just an afterthought
I can't help but thinking
That I'm just an afterthought

Perhaps you know the feeling
When you catch yourself alone
When you don't have a single plan
And seems nobody hits your phone
Or all the places that you go
You're always going on your own
And even if you get invited
It's a number to a quote
Not really trying to be seen
Yet fear nobody's noticing
Irish goodbyes, they don't ask why
Because it didn't cross their mind
Tame Impala, Lonerism
Really that's just all musicians
Not a mindset I condone
But if you've felt, you're not alone
Because

I'm feeling like an afterthought
In every shape and form
What happened on some weekends
Quickly turned into the norm
Not looking for attention
Try weathering the storm
'Cause hail and hot water
Only makes it lukewarm
Not sure if it's the city
Or just being an adult
Maybe everyone's too busy
Maybe none of it's my fault
But I can't help but thinking
Now I'm just an afterthought
Yeah, I can't help but thinking
That I'm just an afterthought

Sometimes it's like you text them happy birthday
Never hear anything back
Now it's three years in a row
And the messages all stack
You get the message now, it's clear
They ain't been thinking about that
When all you wants to show you care
And there's no room on their soundtrack
It makes you wanna' go
Kid Cudi black to maniac
The same ghost who will attack
The weight of broken cardiacs
All alone, stare at the moon
You're asking what else can you do
Until the moment you realize
The culprit all along was you

So now you're staying stuck in the past
I'm asking what good is that
Never making any plans
Expecting others do that
Repressing emotions, and making excuses
Deeming your presence
As something that's useless
Man, what's the point of these devices
If they just keep me divisive
More distracted from my fears
And less emotions that I'll heal
Can't spell notifications
Without a couple of no's
Too loyal to my bed sheets
I gotta get up and go
For now

I'm feeling like an afterthought
In every shape and form
What happened on some weekends
Quickly turned into the norm
Not looking for attention
Try weathering the storm
'Cause hail and hot water
Only makes it lukewarm
Not sure if it's the city
Or just being an adult
Maybe everyone's too busy
Maybe none of it's my fault
But I can't help but thinking
Now I'm just an afterthought
Just can't help but thinking
That I'm just an afterthought

Rejecting and avoiding your emotions moves you backwards
Rejecting and avoiding your emotions moves you backwards
Rejecting and avoiding your emotions moves you backwards
Rejecting and avoiding your emotions moves you backwards

Battling your emotions with acceptance comes recovery
