Insecure
GRAY$CALE Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't know where to fit in, insecure to the ceiling
Always feel like that there's something I'm missin'
It's got me suspicious, make fucked up decisions
Please tell me that this life is worth livin'
Don't know where to fit in, insecure to the ceiling
Always feel like that there's something I'm missin'
Got me suspicious, fucked up decisions
I thought we were something, no matter the distance
But you didn't want me like I wanted you
And you were never there when I needed you
And it's driving me crazy when I think of you
No, there's nothing that's left except the thought of you
Baby, why'd you have to go and leave me broken?
Now I'm crying in the rain, I feel nothing
(Insecure to the ceiling)
Somebody please tell me that this life is worth livin'
Don't know where to fit in, insecure to the ceiling
Always feel like that there's something I'm missin'
It's got me suspicious, make fucked up decisions
Please tell me that this life is worth livin'
Don't know where to fit in, insecure to the ceiling
Always feel like that there's something I'm missin'
Got me suspicious, fucked up decisions
Somebody please tell me that this life is worth livin'
Don't know where to fit in, insecure to the ceiling
Always feel like that there's something I'm missin'
It's got me suspicious, make fucked up decisions
Please tell me that this life is worth livin'
Don't know where to fit in, insecure to the ceiling
Always feel like that there's something I'm missin'
Got me suspicious, fucked up decisions
(Life is worth livin')
