All The Things I Never Said

Written: January 5th, 2023

Genre: Pop

A/N: I wrote this during a time of financial struggles in my house... We went 2 years without general EBT stamps and that time period was literally lockdown. I also wrote this during my 2 month hiatus, so it was a lonely, sad time. Never been well off in the first place, but I'm humble due to conditions. I'm not gonna discuss this much, plus we have general EBT again, so def better than 2020-2022. By general, I mean to pay off for other than food.

yess tate-r tots, in case you're wondering, the title is inspired by Tate's EP title.

1ST VERSE:

Last night I stayed up 'til 5 am

Venting to myself in my head

I've become my own therapist

I tend to worry whether I'm worthy

I shouldn't care, but I constantly wonder what they think of me

And how you're never there when I need you to be

PRE-CHORUS:

And I don't mean to sound so negative

When I'm known to be optimistic

CHORUS:

But here lies all the things I never said

Bottled in, inside my head

How can I call you a friend?

That was clearly way back then

You clearly don't understand

( You don't understand )

2ND VERSE:

I can't stand it when the little things are taken for granted

People get caught up in the materialistic shit and toxic realtionships

That they fail to see how good they have it

They don't ever have to make it last for supper

Or worry about shelter

Whether there's enough to make the rent

Or else the roof over my head will be gone next

I know I don't have it the worst like those on the streets

But I can't help but to hurt, this is me trying

CHORUS:

But here lies all the things I never said

Bottled in, inside my head

How can I call you a friend?

That was clearly way back then

You clearly don't understand

( You don't understand )

BRIDGE:

There's just so much on my mind

Like how I can't afford to fall behind

I need to rise above and work twice as hard for a good life

And I care way too much for friends

When I don't mean as much to them

I dragged them down with vents

But I stopped cause they wouldn't understand

No, they wouldn't understand

CHORUS:

But here lies all the things I never said

Bottled in, inside my head

How can I call you a friend?

That was clearly way back then

You clearly don't understand

( You don't understand )
