Kinda Sorta People Pleaser
You stopped calling me pretty when I cut my hair
So I'll grow it out for you
Said you liked it more when my hair was dyed
So I made an appointment for a quarter past 2
Now it's 1:59, you tell me you lied
It was a joke because of how bad it looked
So I run home, dial the salon on the phone,
And cancel the appointment I booked
It's pathetic
I'm aware
It's not just a strive for validation, I swear
It just makes life so much easier
To be a kinda sorta people pleaser
And when I was thirteen, I had a gap between my teeth
And I loved it a lot
I grew and it was gone and I broke down and sobbed
Until someone said I should've thanked God
Cuz now I have perfect teeth and some people spend weeks
Trying to get my "sweet little smile"
So I pretended to be thankful and oh so grateful
Even though I still missed it for a while
It's pathetic
I'm aware
It's not just a strive for validation, I swear
It just makes life so much easier
To be a kinda sorta people pleaser
Maybe one day I'll say
I like my hair short and dark brown
And despite what people would say
I do miss that gap in my teeth
But til then I'll change
Be different every day
Don't pity me, being ugly's for the weak
And if I'm not pretty and perfect, will anyone listen when I speak?
I'm pathetic
And aware
It's not just a strive for validation, I swear
Life's just so much easier
Cuz I'm a kinda sorta people pleaser
So I'll grow it out for you
Said you liked it more when my hair was dyed
So I made an appointment for a quarter past 2
Now it's 1:59, you tell me you lied
It was a joke because of how bad it looked
So I run home, dial the salon on the phone,
And cancel the appointment I booked
It's pathetic
I'm aware
It's not just a strive for validation, I swear
It just makes life so much easier
To be a kinda sorta people pleaser
And when I was thirteen, I had a gap between my teeth
And I loved it a lot
I grew and it was gone and I broke down and sobbed
Until someone said I should've thanked God
Cuz now I have perfect teeth and some people spend weeks
Trying to get my "sweet little smile"
So I pretended to be thankful and oh so grateful
Even though I still missed it for a while
It's pathetic
I'm aware
It's not just a strive for validation, I swear
It just makes life so much easier
To be a kinda sorta people pleaser
Maybe one day I'll say

And despite what people would say

But til then I'll change
Be different every day
Don't pity me, being ugly's for the weak
And if I'm not pretty and perfect, will anyone listen when I speak?
I'm pathetic
And aware
It's not just a strive for validation, I swear
Life's just so much easier
Cuz I'm a kinda sorta people pleaser
