[Intro]
B
 
 
[Verse]
B
Standing on the sidelines, waiting for a chance to speak up
       B
And whenever it is my turn, I will say
B
"Well, I don't really know what it means to have the spotlight
         B
And the more I think about it, I'm afraid"
 
 
[Chorus]
 N.C.                     E                      B
'Cause I measure out my worth and put it on the line
                   F#                 G#m
But never give too much, so I'll stay fine
                      E                              B
If I'm disappointing you, then where does that leave me?
                      F#*
I know that I should stand tall and want more
N.C.
But I sat on the floor
 
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
 
 
[Verse]
B      F#                 E
Insecurity, what does it mean for someone like me?
B                     F#              E
Tired of fighting my reflection every day (I am fighting my reflection)
B        F#          E
Stop projecting the lies you tell yourself
          B                 F#        E
Just be happy that you've someone to talk to
 
 
[Chorus]
 N.C.                     E                      B
'Cause I measure out my worth and put it on the line
                   F#                 G#m
But never give too much, so I'll stay fine
                      E                              B
If I'm disappointing you, then where does that leave me?
                      F#*
I know that I should stand tall and want more
 
 
[Bridge]
   E                        B                      F#
I know I cannot fight this fear of failure sinking in
          E                        B                       F#
Why can't I just be the brave one, knowing that I'll rise again?
         E          B                  F#
Because who am I if not just a losing fight?
        E                       B                 F#*
I can't be the only one who's tired of trying to try
 N.C.                     E                       B
So don't measure out your worth, it isn't on the line
                        F#               G#m
Don't hold back who you are, you will be fine
                   E                         B
No longer live in regret, compassion is the cure
                  F#
I know that I can try too hard sometimes
 
 
[Final Chorus]
 N.C.                     E                       B
So don't measure out your worth, it isn't on the line (it isn't on the line)
                        F#               G#m
Don't hold back who you are, you will be fine (you will be fine)
                   E                         B
No longer live in regret, compassion is the cure
                   F#
I know that I can try too hard sometimes (hey, hey, hey, hey)
 
 
[Outro]
N.C.                B
So I'll sit on the floor
B
Take a nap
N.C.
And hydrate
