Not the Problem Lyrics

I've always been the type to not let things go

Think about convos from years ago

What I said wrong, how I came off

If I talked about me a little too much

I give and give

All you do is take

Draining my energy

Feeling exhausted and lonely

I'd been warned 'bout friends like that who

Bring you in and spit you out again

I was naive thinking everybody had such

Good intentions

As much as I can try to overthink

How much I might have turned them off

There's one thing I'm sure of

The girl who puts herself out there is

Often not the problem

The effort feels pointless the more I'm left out

Overlooked, dismissed, and pushed around

All of my fears start to make sense

Isn't the first time I've been hurt like this

Wasting my time trying to become

Someone I'll never be

Hiding the best parts about me

I'd been warned 'bout friends like that who

Bring you in and spit you out again

I was naive thinking everybody had such good intentions

As much as I can try to overthink

How much I might have turned them off

There's one thing I'm sure of

The girl who puts herself out there is

Often not the problem

Life's too short to spend it with people

Who don't give a damn about you

I'm off to bigger better things

I surround myself with people

Who celebrate who I am

And who I wanna be

I'd been warned 'bout friends like that who

Bring you in and spit you out again

I was naive thinking everybody had such good intentions

As much as I can try to overthink

How much I might have turned them off

There's one thing I'm sure of

The girl who puts herself out there is

Often not the problem

Not the problem

I'm not the problem
