Insecurities


It sucks being insecure

that's the truth for sure

Always overthinking

Always feeling like you're sinking

Deep into all of your thoughts

 

It sucks being insecure

that's the truth for sure

Always caring about their thoughts

Always having your stomach in knots

because you worry about being overweight

 

It sucks being insecure

that's the truth for sure

Always thinking you're not enough

Always trying to act like you're tough

even though you just want the pain to end
