I used to think you were smart
so much more than I could ever grasp
I used to think you were so out of reach
and I could never in a lifetime
even dream to be enough
I used to think you were a mystery to solve
I used to think I’d give you everything I’ve got
if you only let me in
and when you finally let me in for just a moment
oh, I caught me in the wrong
you made my world crumble to pieces
realized you were never what I needed
never thought you’d be so wicked
more than I’d believe if someone ever told me so
so self absorbed
act like you’re so far above
and you might believe it
but I have seen it
you’re just a lonely boy
in a lonely world
who just keeps fucking up his shots
and any chance he gets at love
Cause you’re just a lonely boy
You’re just a stupid, lonely boy
I used to think you were kind, hah
someone I should even be looking up to
who’d never betray my trust
never go around making up facts
or talking shit behind my back
you sell yourself like you’re a mystery to solve
I thought of you as the nicest guy in the whole world
wishing you would let me in
and then I peeked behind the curtain for a split second
and it finally made it clear
you watched my world crumble to pieces
you poured gasoline on the fire
instead of putting out
I never thought you’d be so wicked
more than I’d foreseen it
even though you told me so
so self absorbed
act like you’re so far above
and you might believe it
but I have seen it
you’re just a lonely boy
in a lonely world
who just keeps lying to himself
and everyone he’s ever crossed, you’re so
fucking pretentious
hide behind your dad’s protection
I’ll beg to differ
you won’t admit it
you’re just a lonely boy in a nice car
who would rather take ten shots than shoot one
breaking his own heart
Cause you’re just a lonely boy
You’re just a stupid lonely boy
you know, you’re just a fucking boy
just a lonely boy
The lyrics MR PRETENTIOUS of ESTRELS is also present in the album The song of the sirens (2025)
Estrels è una cantautrice romana di ventidue anni nata a San Paolo, Brasile, a luglio del 2001. Dopo un breve periodo a Rio de Janeiro, si trasferisce a Roma nel 2006. Il nome d'arte deriva dalla traduzione portoghese del suo nome, Stella. Fin da piccola è attratta dalla musica, innamorandosi definitivamente all'età di otto anni ascoltando Evanescence e Skillet. Impara l'inglese traducendo i testi delle canzoni che ama e inizia a suonare il pianoforte per tre anni. La sua formazione musicale si arricchisce con la chitarra appresa autodidatticamente a circa dodici anni. Influenzata da artisti come The Fray, Green Day, Coldplay e Linkin Park, Estrels inizia a scrivere canzoni intorno ai quindici anni durante il liceo linguistico. Nel 2022 collabora con i musicisti KO m.p.a., pubblicando i suoi primi singoli "Bones" e "Left Out". Inizialmente influenzata dal country e folk, la sua musica si evolve verso un sound indie/pop. Dopo aver suonato nei locali del circuito emergente romano, nel 2023 pubblica due singoli autonomamente prodotti da KO. La lingua prevalente nei suoi testi è l'inglese, ma non mancano composizioni in italiano e portoghese. A dicembre 2024 esce il singolo "marble", anticipando l'album "the song of the sirens" uscito il 31 gennaio 2025, preceduto dal singolo "destination".
