[Verse 1]

I’m smiling

You buy it

I say congratulations

I’m jealous when I see you win

No, really you earned this

Those numbers just confirm it

I’m lying through my teeth again

[Pre-Chorus]

And they should know you’re the best

As long as I’m better

Went to your show just to check what you did wrong

[Chorus]

My insecurity’s brutal

I hear my voice and I cringe

I need somebody’s approval now ‘cause I’m too proud to see you win

[Verse 2]

Reaction, no passion

They said my songs don’t say much

Tell me if this one says enough

Took like four years to make this

I think it makes sense I hate it

Is it bad or is it bad luck?

[Pre-Chorus]

And they should know I’m the best

I only get better

Put one hand up just to prove I do no wrong

[Chorus]

My insecurity’s brutal

I hear my voice and I cringe

I need somebody’s approval now ‘cause I’m too proud to see you win

[Bridge]

Who else do you know

Does it like this

Sing sad songs

Pretend being honest

Everyone I know

Is better than this

Sing sad songs

Look how good my art is

1, 2

1, 2, 3, 4

Yeah!

Whooo!

(Shut up)

[Chorus]

My insecurity’s brutal

I hear my voice and I cringe

I need somebody’s approval now ‘cause I’m too proud to see you win
