Bittersweet, Cheers

[Intro]
things are gonna change, yeah
things are gonna change
things are gonna change, yeah
things are gonna change

[Verse 1]
I try to tell myself I'm happier in place
but that's a lie, dear
we all know my fears
I'm just worried what you think and what you'll say
am I talented yet?
questions in my own head

[Pre-Chorus]
and if my friends and followers know me
then they'll know this song before I show them it

[Chorus]
things are gonna change, yeah
things are gonna change
things are gonna change, yeah
things are gonna change
another year gone, am I stuck in place?
but when I look back I don't recognize my own face
things are gonna change, yeah
things are gonna change
things are gonna change, yeah
things are gonna change
even for better, for worse, I'm here
and my words are echoing clear, my dear

[Verse 2]
feels like I can't write a happy poem
but what's there to say?
not happy everyday
and I don't need you to feel sorry for me
this one's for my peers
bittersweet thoughts, cheers

[Pre-Chorus]
and if my friends and followers know me
then they'll know this song before I show them it

[Chorus]
things are gonna change, yeah
things are gonna change
things are gonna change, yeah
things are gonna change
another year gone, am I stuck in place?
but when I look back I don't recognize my own face
things are gonna change, yeah
things are gonna change
things are gonna change, yeah
things are gonna change
even for better, for worse, I'm here
and my words are echoing clear, my dear

another year gone, am I stuck in place?
but I don't look back, I just keep my pace
