Lyrics
I seem to overestimate my role in everyone's lives
I tend to overestimate my significance in the lives of others.
I make myself feel more important than I really am
I create a sense of self-importance that doesn't align with reality.
And I know that they qualify me as a somewhat friend
Others consider me a somewhat friend, but it stings to realize I won't be more than that for most.
But it hurts to know I'll never be more than that to most of them
It's painful to acknowledge that I won't achieve a deeper connection with many people.
Cause I'm so done with being average
Expressing a desire to break free from being average.
And I hate being plain
Expressing dislike for a mundane existence.
Im not amazing, I'm not bad, I'm just ok
Describing oneself as neither exceptional nor terrible, just okay.
And I wish people would see me
Expressing a wish for others to notice and acknowledge them.
Even though I know that they do
Acknowledging that people do see them, but desiring a deeper recognition.
I just wish I could feel seen by everyone
Expressing a longing to be truly noticed by everyone.
And you know it's true
Affirming the truth of the desire to be recognized.
I know that there are so many who actually care about me
Acknowledging the presence of those who genuinely care, even if not intensely.
Maybe they don't care about me a lot
Recognizing that some care, even if the depth may vary.
But that still has to count for something
Stressing the importance of even modest care from others.
There's only a few who I'm pretty sure actually love me
Identifying a select few who are believed to truly love the person.
But that's ok, they mean so much but you should know
Emphasizing the significance of those few despite the limited number.
That I'm so done with being average
Reiterating the desire to escape mediocrity.
And I hate being plain
Expressing discontent with a mundane life.
Im not amazing, I'm not bad, I'm just ok
Describing oneself as average, neither remarkable nor terrible.
And I wish people would see me
Expressing a wish for others to truly see and understand them.
Even though I know that they do
Acknowledging that others do see, but desiring a more profound recognition.
I just wish I could feel seen by everyone
Longing for a sense of being seen by everyone, particularly a specific person.
Especially you
Affirming the truth of the desire for recognition, especially from a specific individual.
You, you
Repeating the desire for recognition, emphasizing a specific person.
Hmm, hmm
Expressing emotions with humming sounds.
