notes:

a long time ago, some friends and i were in provincetown, down on cape cod. everybody wanted to go stand up paddleboarding but i couldnt afford it, so i ended up hanging out on the beach by myself, watching. sad! but also: not a big deal - it was a really beautiful summer day, and i'm glad it unfolded that way, because i ended up writing this song almost in entirety! what was stressful was that i was singing it quietly to myself on the beach, worried that someone could hear me, and also my phone was dead so i couldnt record any of it - as soon as the paddleboarding ended, i borrowed jake's phone and immediately sang basically the whole song into it, and the rest is history!

i love this one! jake wrote the guitar solo at the end based on a super rough outline i gave him, and then nick wrote the guitarmony, and then they refined it together and it is so perfect! fenn's bass parts are also so fun and just work so well with the song. jake also suggested adding the piano which was a great touch. we really did it! a perfect song. Wow!

lyrics

lyrics:

who's got time for self improvement?
you're too tired to cook yourself dinner; nose to the grindstone
and when you're alone
spend your time marinating in regret
about all your friends, and the student debt

all my problems are so simple
i'm so god damn afraid of failing i'll never win
where do i begin
to pick up the shards of my awful broken brain
and build it back up to destroy once again

but who's got time for second chances?
shitty friends and high school dances
we aren't on this earth so long
to let me sit back and be proven wrong

who's got time for life's romantics?
they say if you stay on the bench you never score
and if i want more
i gotta say im a sorry sight
i don't have the guts to live my life
i don't have the guts to live my life
i don't have the guts to live my life
