GAYLE - dumbass lyrics

[GAYLE - dumbass lyrics]

(You ready?
No)

I do this thing where I close off
My feelings and I take my clothes off
So I don't have to open up to my boyfriend
I told my friends that I'm fine
But really, I'm losin' my mind
They're drinkin', I'm thinkin' too much so I avoid them

Suckin' in my stomach, side effects of fitting in
Won't cut my hair 'cause I'm scared
God forbid I have my own opinion

It's my fear of lookin' like a dumbass
Sayin' somethin' that I shouldn't have
It's holdin' me back, holdin' me back, holdin' me back
My fear of never being good enough
So I ignore what I want
It's holdin' me back, holdin' me back

But I'm over that
Over, over, over, over, over
Over that
Over, over, over, over, over

I'm overbite on my tongue
When people tell me I'm too young
To say all the things that I do in my songs
Sensing all of these side effects of fitting in
I don't know shit, let me live
God forbid I have my own opinion

It's my fear of lookin' like a dumbass
Sayin' somethin' that I shouldn't have
It's holdin' me back, holdin' me back, holdin' me back
My fear of never being good enough
So I ignore what I want
It's holdin' me back, holdin' me back

But I'm over that
Over, over, over, over, over
Over that
Over, over, over, over, over
Over that
Over, over, over, over, over

It's my fear of lookin' like a dumbass
Sayin' somethin' that I shouldn't have
It's holdin' me back, holdin' me back, holdin' me
It's my fear of never being good enough
So I didn't know when I'm not
It's holdin' me back, holdin' me back, holdin' me
