Lyrics

What if I'm really the worst?

Expressing self-doubt, questioning one's worth or capabilities

And my friends don't want me around, they're just too polite

Suspecting that friends might not genuinely enjoy company, but are polite

Do people think I'm a jerk?

Wondering if others perceive the person as unpleasant or unlikable

Cause I seem indifferent and cold, but I'm just kinda shy

Appearing distant due to shyness, not actual indifference


And I wish that I knew how to take a compliment

Desiring the ability to accept compliments, struggling with self-belief

But I can't believe that anyone is genuine

Doubting the sincerity of people's intentions when giving compliments

And I don't really wanna think about it

Avoiding thinking about self-doubt and insecurities

But all I ever do is think about it, still

Despite efforts, constantly consumed by thoughts of self-worth


I know I say too many sorries

Acknowledging excessive apologizing as a habit

Spend too much time at pity parties in my head

Frequently dwelling on negative thoughts during internal "pity parties"

I can't tell if I talk too much, or I don't say enough

Uncertainty about communication style, fearing it's inadequate or excessive

It's like I don't believe that anyone could like me for me

Struggling to believe others genuinely like the person for who they are


Is my mom really proud?

Questioning if parental pride is authentic or obligatory

Or does she say that she is 'cause she has to be?

Suspecting parental support might be out of obligation, not genuine pride

And when you're out in the crowd,

Considering if people show support out of pity rather than genuine interest

Are you just singing along 'cause you feel bad for me?

Wondering if crowd participation is due to sympathy rather than enjoyment


I know I say too many sorries

Reiterating the tendency to apologize excessively

Spend too much time at pity parties in my head

Continuing the pattern of dwelling on self-pity in thoughts

I can't tell if I talk too much, or I don't say enough

Expressing uncertainty about effective communication, self-doubt persists

It's like I don't believe that anyone could like me for me

Repeating the struggle to believe others genuinely appreciate the person


What if I'm really the worst?

Revisiting the fear of being the worst, questioning self-worth

And it's not just paranoia setting in

Suspecting that negative thoughts are not just paranoia but might be true

I overthink 'til it hurts, I second guess every word

Experiencing excessive overthinking and self-doubt, causing emotional pain

Feels like it's some sort of curse

Feeling as though self-doubt is a persistent and damaging curse


I know I say too many sorries

Reiterating the tendency to apologize excessively

Spend too much time at pity parties in my head

Continuing the pattern of dwelling on self-pity in thoughts

I can't tell if I talk too much, or I don't say enough

Expressing uncertainty about effective communication, self-doubt persists

It's like I don't believe that anyone could like me for me

Repeating the struggle to believe others genuinely appreciate the person
