jenny nuo – recruitment season Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It’s recruitment season again, how I wish I could fit in
And how I wish I felt comfortable, be myself in my own skin
Look around at all these perfect chalices filled to the brim
I’m just untempered glass, they’re made of porcelain
[Pre-Chorus]
Say “I’m fine”, no, I didn’t lose my mind
I’m a narcissist who’s insecure all the time
Skip my classes, then I wonder, why I’m so behind?
Somehow, I always feel alone and undefined
[Chorus]
I guess wisdom comes with age, but my time has been a waste
‘Cause I’m nevеr good enough to feel like I’m okay
I ask my older friеnds how they feel about the world being so gray
How can they say that?
Feels like I won’t ever have what it takes
What it takes, what it takes
[Verse 2]
Can I be honest? I don’t really know what’s going on right now
Did I ever feel like I belong?
I’m a little fish in a very big pond and everybody else is in control
I don’t know what’s going on
[Pre-Chorus]
Say “I’m fine”, no, I didn’t lose my mind
I’m a narcissist who’s insecure all the time
Skip my classes, then I wonder, why I’m so behind?
Somehow, I always feel alone and undefined
[Chorus]
I guess wisdom comes with age, but my time has been a waste
‘Cause I’m never good enough to feel like I’m okay
I ask my older friends how they feel about the world being so gray
How can they say that?
Feels like I won’t ever have what it takes
What it takes, what it takes
[Bridge]
Back in high school I thought I’d be smarter, prettier in college
Maybe I was a better swimmer when the pond was smallest
[Verse 3]
It’s recruitment season again, they are asking for my advice
Thought I’d be put together when I set into the spotlight
Hate being admired when I’m really not a [?]
And time hasn’t expired, I just grew too fast
And they know that I know that I don’t know anything at all
I don’t know anything at all
[Chorus]
I guess wisdom comes with age, but my time has been a waste
‘Cause I’m never good enough to feel like I’m okay
I ask my older friends how they feel about the world being so gray
How can they say that?
Feels like I won’t ever have what it takes
[Outro]
I’ll never have what it takes
Will I ever feel okay?
Will I ever have what it takes?
