Verse 1 – LiLi I’ve got a talent for tripping on air, Saying the wrong thing with confident flair. I overthink, overfeel, overdo, And somehow you’re still standing right here too. Verse 1 – Josh I play it cool but I’m far from clean, Got a pile of flaws that I politely ignore. I mess things up in spectacular ways, But you laugh and pull me back in the door. Pre-Chorus – Both Yeah, we’re cracked, yeah, we’re scarred, Got baggage stacked up in a shopping cart. But funny thing about broken parts— They fit just right when it’s heart to heart. Chorus – Both We’re still a mess, but we’re us, Yeah, we’ve failed, yeah, we’ve fussed. Call us reckless, call us crazy, maybe, But at least we’re not alone, baby. Still a mess, still standing tall, If we’re going down, we’re having a ball. World says “get it together,” maybe— But we’re still a mess, baby. Verse 2 – LiLi I get dramatic, I spiral fast, Turn tiny problems into a three-act cast. I say “I’m fine” when I’m clearly not, You hand me tea and let me rant a lot. Verse 2 – Josh I shut down when I should speak up, Act like I’ve got it handled—spoiler: nope. But you see through the silent act, And remind me I don’t have to crack alone. Bridge – Both (spoken/sung feel) LiLi: So what if we’re not the poster type? Josh: Yeah, no shining armor, no perfect life. LiLi: Still— Josh: Still choosing you. Both: Every single time. Chorus – Both We’re still a mess, but we’re us, Held together by jokes and trust. Call us stubborn, call us lazy, maybe, But we’ve got love that doesn’t faze me. Still a mess, still side by side, With all our flaws worn open wide. World can laugh, call us “hopeless,” maybe— But we’re still a mess, baby. Outro – Both So if we’re losers in someone’s eyes, At least we lose with honesty and pride. Not fixed, not perfect, not trying to be— Just you, just me, and messy harmony
