about

Mastered by Jonathan Bailey

lyrics

I’m not special
like I’d like to be

I’m not certain
about anything

I’ve got reason to feel
nervous

I’ve got reason to feel
excited about it

I’ve had enough
my time is up
I’m going to college

It’ll be school
but it’ll be cool

I should
I really should

be who I‘d like to be
how I’d like to be perceived

...

There’s something sweet in the way they sing
like honeysuckles in the spring

The melodies they can call to me
like the flowers do the bees

Dressing cool
and talking smooth
can only get you so far, you know?

You want to live
like the rockstars live

You play the basement shows instead

‘cause acting tough
just ain’t enough

You’ve got to have
that special stuff

Dressing cool
and talking smooth
can only get you so far, you know?
