lyrics

​​​​First time, long time

Big fan of the show

I just called to let you know
That I'm letting go
Before I leave,

Could you validate this ticket?

A stamp to prove that I was here
And left a tiny mark

Knocked down
Tenth round

I’m sparring myself
Eight count
Watch out

I’m scarring myself

Lorem ipsum
Playing possum
Devoid of meaning
Misbegotten

First time, long time

Big fan of the show

I just called to let you know
That I'm letting go
Imposter syndrome

Everywhere I ever go

If I could prove myself

I'd improve myself

I’ve always been my greatest foe

Knocked down
Tenth round

Eight count
Watch out

Lorem ipsum
Playing possum
Devoid of meaning
Misbegotten

Lorem ipsum
Playing possum
Devoid of meaning
I feel forgotten
