PIAO - Haunted By Potential

Lyrics

I'm not good with compliments
Just as bad with sentiments
I'm so afraid that I'll sound disingenuous
When I thank people for being kind to my heart
I thought I could handle it
Filing my accomplishments
But I can't tell which ones are good, which ones are great
'Cause nothing ever seems good enough for me to say, I'll be okay

I'm tryna to fix this habit of always looking for a goal
Hate the idea that everything's not always in my control
Do I deserve it?
Did I earn it to be doing something fun?
Or am I wasting my time?

If the younger me saw who I am today
Would she wish that things had gone some other way?
Should I have not quit piano?
Could I have signed to a label?
These are all things I wanna know
'Cause I'm haunted by potential

I used to say I'll be married, at 24
But that's for sure not gonna happen, anymore
Although I'm an adult and have learned a lot
I'm still like a child in more ways than I'm not
When will I be who I thought I would be?

I'm tryna to fix this habit of always looking for a goal
Hate the idea that everything's not always in my control
Do I deserve it?
Did I earn it to be doing something fun?
Or am I wasting my time?

If the younger me saw who I am today
Would she wish that things had gone some other way?
Should I have not quit piano?
Could I have signed to a label?
These are all things I wanna know
'Cause I'm haunted by potential
If the younger me saw who I am today
Would she wish that things had gone some other way?
Should I have not quit piano?
Could I have signed to a label?
These are all things I wanna know
'Cause I'm haunted by potential
These are all things I wanna know
'Cause I'm haunted by potential
