Check Up
The Million Lyrics

I try and tell me it′s alright
I attempt to convince myself that everything is okay

It's alright yeah
Even though things may be tough, I reassure myself that it's okay

But I don't need a check up
I don't require a medical examination

Just because I'm messed up
Simply because I am struggling

I cannot confess cause this message doesn't fit inside a bottle
I cannot reveal my true feelings or burdens because they are too complex to be encapsulated in a simple message

Breathing in the age of the shameless
Living in a time where there is no shame or inhibition

Tell myself it'll be ok when I'm famous
I convince myself that everything will be fine once I achieve fame

Come on doc, can't you show me where the pain is?
I ask the doctor to help me locate the source of my pain

I needa put something in my hands before they start shaking
I feel the need to hold onto something to steady my trembling hands

I'm losing track of time and sleep
I am no longer able to keep track of time or get enough sleep

And who I meet means nothing if I can't recall a thing
Meeting new people becomes insignificant if I cannot remember any details

But in the end it'll all be great
Despite the difficulties, I believe that everything will eventually turn out well

I can tell you one thing though
However, there is one thing I can say with certainty

I'm still waiting on the afterglow
I am eagerly anticipating a feeling of contentment or satisfaction

But instead I made my head explode
However, I overwhelmed myself mentally

Least I don't really have to think no more
At least I no longer have to worry or contemplate as much

And if by chance we made it and we're famous
And if by some luck we achieve success and become famous

Cause we played hits on your playlist
Because our songs became popular on your playlist

Doesn't change the way my brain is made
However, it does not alter the workings of my mind

It's one thing status can't replace
Fame cannot replace or fulfill certain aspects of my life

When I let my mind drift away
When I allow my thoughts to wander

Love the quiet of outer space
I appreciate the tranquility of outer space

But nothing brings me down to earth like you
However, nothing grounds me or makes me feel more connected to reality than you

So
Therefore

La la la la la la la la la la la la
Singing non-specific sounds

Doesn't fit inside a bottle
My emotions or thoughts cannot easily be contained or conveyed

I cannot confess cause this message doesn't fit inside a bottle
I am unable to share my true feelings or burdens because they are too complex to be encapsulated in a simple message
