Never Be Cool

Trying my best
Maybe I should

Grew up in a small world
Big dreams for a small girl
Thought that winning put the cool kids on your team
But there I was
Fifteen, no boyfriend
Only books and achievements
Never asked to the school dance
But I dreamed

I've always wondered if the popular kids even liked each other, I
Or maybe they're all just tryna be somebody that they're not
'Cause I'm not

Looking back on wasted youth
Wishing I hard learned to lose
Even though I'm trying my best
Maybe I should accept
That I'll never be cool

A choir girl, self-conscious
A try-hard, if I'm honest
Too scared to smoke a cigarette, I never will
But now I stand
A little tall, a little different
Still a loser, but I mean it
When I say I like the way I've settled in my skin

I've always wondered if the popular kids even liked each other, I
Or maybe they're all just tryna be somebody that they're not
'Cause I'm not

Looking back on wasted youth
Wishing I hard learned to lose
Even though I'm trying my best
Maybe I should accept
That I'll never be cool

Watching as the river runs
Finding out who I've become
Even though I'm trying my best
Maybe I should accept
That I'll never be cool

No, I'll never, no, no, no, I'll never
No, I'll never, no, no, no, I'll never
No, I'll never, no, no, no, I'll never
No, I'll never be cool

Looking back on wasted youth
Wishing I hard learned to lose
Even though I'm trying my best
Maybe I should accept
That I'll never be cool

Watching as the river runs
Finding out who I've become
Even though I'm trying my best
Maybe I should accept
That I'll never be cool
