Nicole Franco - Living for Them Lyrics

Days are empty
Another test in biology
Working towards a major
I don't even want in psychology

If a year ago
I was living in the Big Apple
Then how'd I end up back here
Playing the part in my parents' favorite show?

They're in the crowd
Applauding loud
Once again I know they're proud
But how about me?
I'm not happy
I miss the girl I used to be
Will the rest of my life be lived for them and not for me?
Oh
Oh

May 2023
I will walk away with that degree
Everyone around me
Will finally have a reason to be proud of me

Like that paper is worth more than I am
They don't understand
They'll never understand

They're in the crowd
Applauding loud
Once again I know they're proud
But how about me?
I'm not happy
I miss the girl I used to be
Will the rest of my life be lived for them and not for me?

Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh

It's been a year
Since I've walked these streets
East Fifteenth
Working towards my dream
Living for me
Happy
