The Maybe Man by AJR Lyric Prompts Part 2
"There's a hole in the bottom of my brain."
"The world knows the party was great."
"Heads up, I'm sorry to be that guy."
"I could finally be ready for fame."
"In a town that I loathe."
"Everyone's laughing at me, but not like I'm used to."
"You've wasted your life, but thanks for applying."
"I'm all grown up, but you couldn't tell."
"You got older 'cause you're good at life, I'm all seventeen at thirty-five."
"Everyone's stacking their bills, but not 'cause they like to."
"Yeah, I fucked up, but I did it my way."
"Getting a life's a little like dying."
"Be kind to me, be kind, and wait it out."
"I must've missed the hype, but maybe that's the way I feel."
"I do what you tell me to, and do it to death."
"So welcome back, and take a breath."
"You come to life, you're bored to death."
"But what the hell you gonna do?"
"Wouldn't it be nice for someone to miss ya?"
"Funny how all the things that you used to like, now they depress ya."
"While you try to find some meaning in your life, before you're gone."
"You'd probably think that that was the real me."
"There's so many better melodies, why do you need a new one?"
"The Earth is spinnin' like it always did."
"And each day, when the world wakes up, our lawns will still be wet."
"God is really real, when you really, really need him."
"Karma just appears, when you suddenly believe it."
"Just as long as it's convenient."
"Life's fuckin' long, 'till it stops."
"Don't wanna hear your problems, 'cause there's just one in my head."
"We can't face our feelings, so we're making lots of jokes."
"If somebody told me I'd die at forty, I wouldn't've spent my time in bed."
"I should've just grown up, instead."
"How long have I been out of town?"
"How different life would be, right now..."
"I smile when I cry, to hide what I felt."
"I'm doing fine, speak for yourself."
"I should've just asked for help."
"We're old as shit, whatever."
"I'd hate to have to die 'fore I get my head together."
"If you've got friends, don't let 'em leave."
"Not one of them were there to see."
"You don't have to try so hard, you know."
"I spent my whole life, tryna be so liked; that only made them hate me more."
"Did I make you proud? Did I screw this up?"
"Sing with me loud, it's all that I've got."
"You gotta get better, you're all that I've got."
"Don't take forever, you're not here, for long."
"I think it's too late to figure this out."
"If I could be me, I would've been it, by now."
"It looks like our time is running out."
"So if this is me, then I'll do my best."
"I'll take all the shit, so you never have to."
"You could be you, and I'll be the rest."
"Maybe that's who the hell I am."
