I'm starting to love me
I'm realizing what I need
You know I'll always love you, honey
But am I really your priority?
You know I hate to be the center of attention
But I'm not feeling loved
Forgive me for speaking up, but I need to be comforted for once
A few kind words and a kiss on the head isn't gonna hold me over for months
Like it used to
I wanna be the girl, the girl in my dreams
She gets what she wants, not defined by her teens
I wanna speak my mind, I wanna not be afraid of what you will say
Why am I so worried about hurting you when I'm hurting too?
Do you think I'm overthinking?
'Cuz I don't think you're really thinking
You know I appreciate you trying
But I can't help but feel you're lying
You know I hate to be the center of attention
But I'm not feeling loved
Forgive me for speaking up, but I need to be comforted for once
A few kind words and a kiss on the head isn't gonna hold me over for months
Like it used to
I wanna be the girl, the girl in my dreams
She gets what she wants, not defined by her teens
I wanna speak my mind, I wanna not be afraid of what you will say
Why am I so worried about hurting you when I'm hurting too?
I know what I need, and I don't need somebody to tell me
That I'm not thinking correctly
Because I know how I feel
I know how I feel
You know I hate to be the center of attention
But I'm not feeling loved
Forgive me for speaking up, but I need to be comforted for once
A few kind words and a kiss on the head isn't gonna hold me over for months
Like it used to
I wanna be the girl, the girl in my dreams
She gets what she wants, not defined by her teens
I wanna speak my mind, I wanna not be afraid of what you will say
Why am I so worried about hurting you when I'm hurting too?
