Lyrics

Contemplating why I'm eager to please
I disagree but I just nod my head and seek to agree
Maybe it's my demons tryna reason with me
But all this people pleasing got me feeling weak at the knees
Tryna be the nice guy bites me in the foot again
Keep my mouth shut 'cause I'm scared of who I could offend
Maybe it's my introverted self and how look at friends
Maybe it's these fucking red flags that I should have sensed
I don't listen to these boundaries that I set myself
I know I should, it's detrimental to my mental health
Every time I try to pierce a hole in this leather belt
I buckle under pressure but it's funny cause you'd never tell
Every time I say yes, every time I compliment
Every time I nod my head it eats away my confidence
I know I should do better man, I tell myself on to it
I'm getting pretty sick of tired of dealing with the consequence
Why have I been acting like I've been so eager lately
People pleasing got me feeling like I'm going crazy
Why have I been acting like I've been so eager lately
People pleasing got me feeling like I'm going crazy
I resent my former self in old relationships
It's no wonder that they ended in the way they did
Putting on a face, to play to safe, for the sake of it
Thought that I was brave but I hate me for faking it
Where's the fear of disappointing people coming from
Maybe it's all stemming from the problems that I'm running from
Swerving all these arguments, wondering what's going on
Now I'm thinking that I might just be the only one
I made excuses for people that didn't care for me
Seeking validation from people that didn't dare to see
Suppose it's easier to walk around it carefully
Then starting off an argument and deal with it despairingly
My inner critic always stopping from me saying no
Wish that it was different so I'm learning how to stay a float
All these favours got me feeling like I'm paying loans
'Cause pleasing everybody really ain't the way to go
Why have I been acting like I've been so eager lately
People pleasing got me feeling like I'm going crazy
Why have I been acting like I've been so eager lately
People pleasing got me feeling like I'm going crazy
Why have I been acting like I've been so eager lately
People pleasing got me feeling like I'm going crazy
Why have I been acting like I've been so eager lately
People pleasing got me feeling like I'm going crazy
