Clairo - Brown Trout Blue

To Rate
Verse 1
Time rolls the back wheels of my mind
You helped me put the brakes on, 'cause you're kind
I wonder where you learned to be so good
And I wonder if I'm doing the best I could

Refrain
I could be somewhere else, I should be someone else, but...

Verse 2
You wouldn't know me if I was
You'd say I was a stranger, just because
You'd say I wasn't weak enough for you
You'd want me just to feel as you do too

Refrain
I could be somewhere else, I should be someone else, but...

Verse 3
You shouldn't tell me what to do
I'll only take the brakes off if you do
And roll around like marbles on the floor
Please pick me up and roll me out the door

Refrain
I could be somewhere else, I should be someone else, but...

Instrumental

Verse 4
I guess I'm happy as I am
Sometimes I find it hard to be a man
It's easier just to play the same old game
Of trying to forget my bloody name

Refrain
I could be somewhere else, I should be someone else, but...

Verse 5
How are you, ah, mister?
I know what I'm called
It's just, you got me
You got me, you got me stalled...
