I Don't Even Try
I felt the pressure
They were waiting outside for me
They would come right after and check how I did
I didn't do it for me
I did it to prove myself to them
I signed up for a test that I wasn't ready for
But that one time
Marked my life
For the worse
It set me to fail once again
And again, and again
And it's been so long
Since I fell into this hole
Every time I try I just fall deeper down
I wanna get out
But the cost is so high
That I don't even try
They all brag about what they've done
And sometimes I lie to fit in
What would they think of me?
If they knew
That I never played the game
By their rules
Maybe we're all insecure
We appear better than we are
Just to feel
Like we fit in
But that one time
Marked my life
For the worse
It set me to fail once again
And again, and again
And it's been so long
Since I fell into this hole
Every time I try I just fall deeper down
I wanna get out
But the cost is so high
That I don't even try
Maybe we're all insecure
We appear better than we are
Just to feel
Like we fit in
Maybe we're all insecure
We appear better than we are
Just to feel
Like we fit in
And that one time
Marked my life
For the worse
It set me to fail once again
And again, and again
And it's been so long
Since I fell into this hole
Every time I try I just fall deeper down
I wanna get out
But the cost is so high
That I don't even try
They were waiting outside for me
They would come right after and check how I did
I didn't do it for me
I did it to prove myself to them
I signed up for a test that I wasn't ready for
But that one time
Marked my life
For the worse
It set me to fail once again
And again, and again
And it's been so long
Since I fell into this hole
Every time I try I just fall deeper down
I wanna get out
But the cost is so high
That I don't even try
They all brag about what they've done
And sometimes I lie to fit in
What would they think of me?
If they knew
That I never played the game
By their rules
Maybe we're all insecure
We appear better than we are
Just to feel
Like we fit in
But that one time
Marked my life
For the worse
It set me to fail once again
And again, and again
And it's been so long
Since I fell into this hole
Every time I try I just fall deeper down
I wanna get out
But the cost is so high
That I don't even try
Maybe we're all insecure
We appear better than we are
Just to feel
Like we fit in
Maybe we're all insecure
We appear better than we are
Just to feel
Like we fit in
And that one time
Marked my life
For the worse
It set me to fail once again
And again, and again
And it's been so long
Since I fell into this hole
Every time I try I just fall deeper down
I wanna get out
But the cost is so high
That I don't even try
