[Verse 1] I bought a box called ā€œFix Your Lifeā€ Said step one: ā€œJust do it rightā€ Opened it up, felt hope for once Then I read it… and I was done Tiny letters, fancy font Accents dancing where they want Thought it said ā€œbreatheā€ or maybe ā€œrunā€ Either way, I picked the wrong one [Pre-Chorus] Now there’s smoke in the kitchen, And my plans are a mess I think I just declared war Instead of handling stress [Chorus] I tried to fix my life but the instructions were in French Now I’m crying in the mirror with a half-built confidence Was it ā€œlove yourselfā€ or ā€œset the whole thing on fireā€? Either way, I missed it by a mile, not a wire I tried to fix my life, gave it all that I had left But I mixed up ā€œfind your peaceā€ with ā€œemotionally regressā€ Now I’m dancing through disasters like it’s all part of the plan Singing ā€œla-la-la-la-help me,ā€ doing everything I can [Verse 2] Step two looked kind of intense Something ā€˜bout ā€œle consequenceā€ Thought it meant ā€œjust take a chanceā€ Now I’m banned from self-advance There was glue and there was tape Somehow added extra fate Tried to build a better me Got a slightly worse upgrade [Pre-Chorus] Now I’m lost in translation With my heart on the line Was it ā€œtrust the processā€ Or ā€œyou’re running out of timeā€? [Chorus] I tried to fix my life but the instructions were in French Now I’m arguing with Google like it’s my only friend Was it ā€œheal your pastā€ or ā€œbuy a croissant and cryā€? Honestly, I did both and I’m still asking why I tried to fix my life, now it’s chaos with a vibe Every wrong interpretation somehow helped me survive Now I’m spinning all my failures into something I can stand Singing ā€œje ne sais quoi help me,ā€ like I totally understand [Bridge] Maybe I don’t need to read it right Maybe wrong turns still ignite Something messy, something real Something broken I can feel If I’m lost, at least I tried Even if my guidebook lied Or I just… couldn’t translate Every little twist of fate [Final Chorus] I tried to fix my life but the instructions were in French Now I’m laughing at the chaos sitting on this metaphorical bench Was it ā€œbecome your bestā€ or ā€œjust enjoy the rideā€? Guess I’m doing both now, kinda failing with pride I tried to fix my life, didn’t turn out how I planned But I built something human out of things I didn’t understand Now I’m singing through the nonsense, yeah, I’m finally convinced You don’t need perfect directions… just a little persistence [Outro] La-la-la, I’ll figure it out La-la-la, no shadow of doubt If it breaks, I’ll dance through the wreck Even if I don’t know what it said next
