I've always been the type to not let things go
Think about convos from years ago
What I said wrong, how I came off
If I talked about me a little too much

I give and give
All you do is take
Draining my energy
Feeling exhausted and lonely

I'd been warned 'bout friends like that who
Bring you in and spit you out again
I was naive thinking everybody had such
Good intentions
As much as I can try to overthink
How much I might have turned them off
There's one thing I'm sure of
The girl who puts herself out there is
Often not the problem

The effort feels pointless the more I'm left out
Overlooked, dismissed, and pushed around
All of my fears start to make sense
Isn't the first time I've been hurt like this

Wasting my time trying to become
Someone I'll never be
Hiding the best parts about me

I'd been warned 'bout friends like that who
Bring you in and spit you out again
I was naive thinking everybody had such good intentions
As much as I can try to overthink
How much I might have turned them off
There's one thing I'm sure of
The girl who puts herself out there is
Often not the problem

Life's too short to spend it with people
Who don't give a damn about you
I'm off to bigger better things
I surround myself with people
Who celebrate who I am
And who I wanna be

I'd been warned 'bout friends like that who
Bring you in and spit you out again
I was naive thinking everybody had such good intentions
As much as I can try to overthink
How much I might have turned them off
There's one thing I'm sure of
The girl who puts herself out there is
Often not the problem
Not the problem
I'm not the problem
