lyrics

Getting older
staying sober
trying to live without drinking the pressure down.

Had a lover,
blew my cover,
trying to live with out hurting everyone around.

It's a long way to the top
if you're bedroom indie pop.

Asked my brother
to forgive my mother,
she's been dead for so long now.

Getting clean,
don't be mean to me,
so much I never wanna find out.

It's a long way to the top
if you're bedroom indie pop.

It's a long way to the top
if you're bedroom indie pop.

Twitter handled,
got me cancelled,
I swear i was just trying to be funny.

Spotify,
what's up with that guy?
Why does he wanna take all our pennies?

I can't drag myself away,
summer is turning to autumn,
there;'s no place to start but the bottom.

I can't
I can't
I can't drag myself away

It's a long way to the top
if you're bedroom indie pop.
