Madilyn Mei - My Only Sense Of Purpose Lyrics


No time to waste, gonna be late for fate
You know what they say ’bout bright flames
Gonna burn out, they gonna replace you
Replicate, AI-generate you
No time to waste, gonna be late for fate
You know what they say ’bout bright flames
Gonna burn out, they gonna replace you
Replicate, AI-generate

I don’t know the things I wanna say until I say it
I hate it till I play it up on stage and see your faces
Let go of the reins, now my whole brain’s a one-man circus
This has to be my fate, it’s my only sense of purpose

Make it a character
You’re her but you’re not her

No, you can’t take a day, you’re our brightest flame
No, you can’t change your name, you’re our brightest flame
Whoa

I don’t know which way to go, so I continue forward
The pure and utter horror, realizing I left me behind
I’m lonelier than ever, but I guess that’s for the better
Time to kill and bills to pay and plenty things to write

I’m just a little not myself lately
Too late to contemplate, you chose your fate, maybe I should
Make it a character
You’re her but you’re not her

No, you can’t take a day, you’re our brightest flame
No, you can’t change your name, you’re our brightest flame
No, you can’t take a day, you’re our brightest flame
No, you can’t change your name, you’re our brightest—

I’m done, I’ve just begun
Why am I burning out?
Did I fly too close to the sun?
Why am I burning out?
It was just starting to get fun
Why am I slowing down?
Why am I burning out?
Why am I burning? It’s burning

No time to waste, gonna be late for fate
I know what they say ’bout bright flames
Gonna burn out, they gonna replace me
Replicate, AI-generate me
Gotta keep up, I’m eating my own dust
Don’t know what to do or to trust
Gonna burn out, they gonna replace me
Replicate, AI-generate

No time to waste, gonna be late for fate
I know what they say ’bout bright flames
Gonna burn out, they gonna replace me
Replicate, AI-generate me
No time to waste, gonna be late for fate
I know what they say ’bout bright flames
Gonna burn out, they gonna replace me
Replicate, AI-generate

I don’t know which way to go, so I continue forward
The pure and utter horror, realizing I left me behind

I could write a thousand songs
About it all
I’ve just begun
Now I can’t stop
Lose your mind
Stay who you’re not
But the brightest of flames
Burn half as long
