Congratulations (2021)

I wanna set this place on fire

Cause I sink down while you fly higher

And you’re everything I wish I was

But you won’t ever see that cause


I break

Every time I say “congratulations”

And the tears pour

Every time I fake some joy and patience

But you won’t

read that in the texts I write

You won’t see

How the envy keeps me up at night

No

You’ll be blind to the signs

Assuming that I’ll be fine


Oh living the life I wish I had

And even I see that’s so bad

So I block it out distracting myself

With friends and school, pain stacked on the shelf

Cause I’ll still be the failure

And you’ll never know how you’re…

Everything I wish I was

But you won’t ever know that cause


I break

Every time I say “congratulations”

And the tears pour

Every time I fake some joy and patience

But you won’t

read that in the texts I write

You won’t see

How the envy keeps me up at night


So I wish you the best with all your glory

I wish you the most and more, I’m sorry

I couldn’t be the one who cheered you on

I wished we passed the test, but we must move on

So I wish you luck with all your glory

I’ll be here, the background of my own story
