caffeine - maisie peters lyrics
[verse 1]
you used to tell me i’m no good at looking out for you
looking out for you
you said that i don’t see clearly and that i will twist my point of view
my point of view
[pre*chorus 1]
and i would excuse you again and again
say, “it’s just some inside joke that they don’t get”
but to tell the truth i never found them even slightly funny
i just laughed so you wouldn’t laugh at me instead
[verse 2]
i remember when you used to cover up your words
bubblegum pink
sugar sweet, they will go down
until i realize they just stuffed me in the ground
[pre*chorus 2]
and then something cl!cked and i figured it out
how i bullsh*t all your spite into “he needs me”
i know it took me way too long to see i only let you down
you should know that i’m not feeling all that lonely
[chorus]
’cause i’m running on caffeine, guitar strings, and smiling ’cause i can
thinking ’bout me and myself and how you won’t define who i am
running on dirt bikes and starlight
oh, i know i look good
i don’t need your approval
’cause i’m no longer running on you
[verse 3]
you used to hate it when i got way too excited
way too excited
i was ashamed of laughing at things too much, so i bundle all my happiness and hide it
trying to please you
[pre*chorus]
you told me i acted like a stupid little girl
that i embarrass you and i should get a grip
but it’s you who is pathetic
and in case you didn’t know, i wrote this song to show you how i’m just so over it
[chorus]
’cause i’m running on caffeine, guitar strings, and smiling ’cause i can
thinking ’bout me and myself and how you won’t define who i am
running on dirt bikes and starlight
oh, i know i look good
i don’t need your approval
’cause i’m no longer running on you
[post*chorus]
la*da*da*da*da*da, la*da*da*da*da
la*da*da*da*da*da, la*da*da*da*da
la*da*da*da*da*da, la*da*da*da*da
[bridge]
and there’s a word for what you do
and there’s a name i won’t repeat
i won’t stick pins into your toes or write sad songs when i can’t sleep
you took enough of my time and i won’t let you take no more
so i’m building back my bridges and i’m locking all my doors
[chorus]
’cause i’m running on caffeine, guitar strings, smiling ’cause i can
thinking ’bout me, oh, and myself and how you won’t define who i am
running on dirt bikes and starlight
oh, i know i look good
i don’t need your approval
’cause i’m no longer running on you
