Skye Peterson - Not So Sure lyrics

During break, I heard them laughing
As they gathered up and talked
So I went into the bathroom and
I cried behind the stall
No one noticed I was missing
So I took a breath or two
I washed my face to leave no trace
No mascara residue

Know the truth
Still that kid in middle school
Acting wiser than the wise
Just to prove I'm not a fool
I wanna have my act together
Well, at least in front of you
Well, I used to think that confidence is key
But that's the thing i'm not so sure anymore
I'm not so sure

Well I long for real connection
But try to find it on my own
And I ache for something honest
While I'm putting on a show
Masking all my fears and failures
With a painful kind of pride
They say "fake it 'till you make it
'Till your life is one big lie"

If you wanna know the truth
I'm still that kid in middle school
'Cause I'm scared of screwin' up
So I'm a fool who plays it cool
I wanna have my act together
Well, at least in front of you
Well, I used to think that confidence is key
But that's the thing i'm not so sure anymore
I'm not so sure

And if sorrow is the tie
That binds your lonely heart to mine
Let's be real and take our time
Let's sit down and talk a while
Dear friends, I've heard it told
You'd be a little less alone
If today we could be brave enough
To let ourselves be known

I used to think that confidence is key
But that's the thing i'm not so sure anymore
I'm not so sure i'm not so sure anymore
I'm not so sure
