People Pleaser

You pick the movie and the music too
Tasteless comedy with mild abuse
I try to love it like I love you
But sometimes it's no use
We go to parties where we over drink
Blaring music and we overthink
Invincible at each other's sides
My Achilles' out tonight

But I don't wanna be
Another reason you don't trust camaraderie
But you only like me
When I'm a vessel for your insecurity

You can't win when you're a people pleaser
Cause losing is just so much easier
And I can't take the eternal labor
Of fighting to stay in your favor
Take my breath if you're not breathing
And make me small to keep you feeding
Yeah, that's what I'll do
So long as I'm still of use to you

Keep your secret and I'll keep it well
But I'm the traitor if I ever tell
The shitty spot you put me in
You'll do anything to win
A puppet master with paper dolls
Casting director, you make the calls
What's the best light to paint you in?
When this paper lantern's burning thin?

Cause I don't wanna be
Another reason you don't trust camaraderie
But you only like me
When I'm a vessel for your insecurity

You can't win when you're a people pleaser
Cause losing is just so much easier
And I can't take the eternal labor
Of fighting to stay in your favor
Take my breath if you're not breathing
And make me small to keep you feeding
Yeah, that's what I'll do
So long as I'm still of use to you
Am I still of use to you?
After all you put me through?
What am I supposed to do?
Now that I'm not of use to you
