about

a song about procrastination, perfectionism, and defeatism

lyrics

You're not perfect, that's fine
Don't rework it, the job will never get done
Don't overthink it, there's still time
Don't desert it, one day you'll be paid to have fun
And for a moment you'll be basking in the sun
It's complicated
It's too much
You're pushing that wall but it doesn't seem to budge
And although you've added your own touch
It'll never be enough for your internal judge
Don't cry about it anymore
Can't focus on anything at all
All you do is play games
And you'll push it till there's nothing left of you but bone
With the only words you've spoken etched upon your gravestone
