"Bored" Lyrics:
VERSE 1:

it’s 4am again
you think that could I sense a trend
I’m staying up too late just so I can stay awake

wish I weren’t so self obsessed
wish that I could be the best
excited with my words
but nervous and I’m BORED

CHORUS:
I’m so bored of waking up, I’m so BORED
bored of what’s inside my cup, I’m so BORED
I’m exhausted by my heart
I’d feel good if only I could finish what I start

I’m so BORED
I’m never tired in my bed, I’m so BORED
of these thoughts inside my head, I’m so BORED
bored of being all alone, just hoping I find purpose in these pictures on my phone

VERSE 2:
my new habit of the week is saying sorry when I speak
I know that it’s no good, there’s no reason why I should

but it’s stuck inside my head, and I can’t get out of bed
I don’t wanna be ignored, but I’m nervous and I’m BORED
BRIDGE:
easier to throw up the flag, well I don’t know
beat me up for being a drag, well I been dining on crazy I’m filling up on these lies
well I just, wish you would love me but I keep it all inside
OUTRO:
you look too hard then you see it’s a joke
and yeah you think you’re trapped but it’s nothing but smoke
you want it better but you, you only choke: is this all there is
Is this all there is

Chords are capo 2 C Am F G the whole way through! or on piano D Bm G A

I love the way Tessa and Mandy’s voice sound together!!! Their harmonies gave me chills💛

[DonnyJ]

This is a work of art. Tessa deserves way more recognition. Anyone agree?

[leahwagner]

The original version of this song came out during such a crappy time in my life, and it’s made me so happy, and the fact that it’s getting attention and she’s making new versions with icons like MisterWives brings me so much joy. Tessa violet I stan you, and only you. Thank you for being such a positive light in this world and always making me smile

[LittlePigBoyyy]

"But I'm stuck inside my head and I can't get out of bed". The entire juxtaposition of the song nearly disappears when she hits that. Ugh this whole thing was beautiful.

[TheNilyaAylin]

The only bad thing in this, is that it ends :(

[airsea]

This amps up the original giving it such a theatrical tone! AA I love it!!

[gabim]

my new habit of the week: getting everyone to stream bored ft misterwives

[dejavijil]

tessa the vocals on this song are ASTRONOMICAL

[theluckyfin]

the harmonies here making me cry because they’re so beautiful? more likely than you’d think

[BryanAiello]

Captured the moment, the quarantine, the pure agonizing reason for life:

to conquer boredom.

Thanks for helping me.

This is going to get many, many replays.

[freddiesmith]

this is literal actual perfection im OBSESSED

[genevievekiero-watson]

When you've loved both Tessa and Misterwives for over 3 years and then suddenly they collab. I think I'm in love ❤

[alexarreola]

I’m no longer bored waiting for new Tessa music!!

[tashak]

I've listened to this song hundreds of times, this was my first time thinking of being bored as a good thing. I've finally been off social media for a year now and have broken the addiction.
I've never been so thankful to be able to be bored and to have a functioning brain

[JesusHComedy]

Here’s hoping to find purpose with these pictures on my phone

[percussion]

super bloom flowers and giant leaves. we stan a multi layered collab ♡

[lesarine]

Your voices together are pure art! I'm speechless!!! ❤️

[Nathan_Tanner]

I love the new harmonies. I feel like the original is the struggle of boredom and the existential crisis and the new harmonies paint this as a redemptive reprise. Yes the struggles are still present, but the choral swells in the final chorus make me feel that there has been some degree of progression made. Something has been overcome. I love it so much haha!!

[jeanine]

THIS IS SO EXCITING
AND IT CAME OUT SO GOOD OH MY GOODNESS time to stream for eternity

[pedroguerrazzidesouza]

Geez, the harmony, the instruments, THEIR VOICES!!! Everything about this, oof.. Perfection is the word
