Without a Yacht

© 2024, Lyrics and Music by Jason Didner and Amy Didner


I logged into the latest app
And saw those fabulous photos
Legs in a hammock for a seaside nap
I'm swept away in a wave of fomo

Everyone's living their best lives
While I'm deeply insecure
How is it that I'm failing to thrive?
And why do I come back for more?

When I take out my phone
I see everything I'm not
It gets me feeling alone
Like I’m the only one without a yacht 
Without a yacht

If comparison’s the thief of joy
Then this is the heist of the century
Compare, despair and get annoyed
This cycle brings out the worst in me

I really should take the time to see
Social posts can be so selective
You can easily edit your reality
And our view can't be objective

When I take out my phone
I see everything I'm not
It gets me feeling alone
Like I’m the only one without a yacht

Scrolling in envy of likes and shares
Not really getting anywhere 
What does it matter? I don’t know
But it pays for a yacht for some CEO

When I take out my phone
I see everything I'm not
It gets me feeling alone
Like I’m the only one without a yacht 
Without a yacht

Like I’m the only one
Without a yacht

Only actually I’m not
