I Sit In Parks Lyrics

I sit in parks
It breaks my heart
'Cause I see just how far I am
From the things that I want
Dad brought the picnic
Mom brought the sunscreen
Two kids are laughing
And crying on red swings

We look about the same age
But we don't have same Saturdays

Did I miss it?
By now is it, a lucid dream?
Is it my fault for chasing things a body clock doesn't wait for?
I did the damn tour,
It's what I wanted, what I got
I spun around and then I stopped
And wondered if I missed the mark

So I sit in parks
Sunglasses dark
And I hit the vape, hallucinate
A nursery with Noah's Ark
They lay on a blanket
And God damn it he loves her
I wonder if she wants my freedom
Like I wanna be a mother

But Rolling Stone says I'm on the right road
So I refill my Lexapro thinkin'

Did I miss it?
By now is it, a lucid dream?
Is it my fault for chasing things a body clock doesn't wait for?
I did the damn tour,
It's what I wanted, what I got
I spun around and then I stopped
And wondered if I missed the mark

So I sit in parks
Checking bench marks
Taryn's due in June
The album's due in March

I CAN'T HELP MYSELF

I sit in parks
It breaks my heart
'Cause I see just how far I am
From the things that I want
Dad brought the picnic
Mom brought the sunscreen
Two kids are laughing
And crying on red swings

We look about the same age
But we don't have same Saturdays

Did I miss it?
By now is it, a lucid dream?
Is it my fault for chasing things a body clock doesn't wait for?
I did the damn tour,
It's what I wanted, what I got
I spun around and then I stopped
And wondered if I missed the mark

So I sit in parks
Sunglasses dark
And I hit the vape, hallucinate
A nursery with Noah's Ark 
They lay on a blanket
And God damn it he loves her
I wonder if she wants my freedom
Like I wanna be a mother

But Rolling Stone says I'm on the right road
So I refill my Lexapro thinkin'

Did I miss it?
By now is it, a lucid dream?
Is it my fault for chasing things a body clock doesn't wait for?
I did the damn tour,
It's what I wanted, what I got
I spun around and then I stopped
And wondered if I missed the mark

So I sit in parks
Checking bench marks
Taryn's due in June
The album's due in March

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
