The Wrong Skills

from Needs Help (Deluxe Edition) by The Very Most

/

lyrics

My thoughts, most days, barely exist at all.
Not consciously.
Most things I say come more from reflex than deliberation.

There's just so much I can't resolve by Googling.
So many things with no right answer that I have to get right.

My thoughts just spin and most of the time I don't do anything.
It doesn't help.
They run on an endless loop, below everything else.

My life and yours.
These thoughts, they just get in the way.
I guess they've been hurting me for years, and
I just didn't know.

And every morning we must fight just to make it out of bed.
And we know that our lives are killing us.
Slowly, but still.

My thoughts, sometimes, when I can take some time to work with them,
Come out just fine, but they can be obscured by unrelated things.

The skills I have are wrong for the most important things.
And if I fail at them, well then I have failed, full stop.
