Insecure
Riot Course Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Every time it seems to lead to something
Let's pretend this never happened
The weight of it all makes my shoulders weak
Yet stronger
All in all I guess I could have taken it a little bit longer
But I'm strong in my convictions
Resilient against friction
Still Insecure
But I'm not conflicted no more, no
I intend to close every possible door
Why don't you call me one more time
Try and slander my name
Couldn't find the courage, couldn't find the faith to
Tell me to my fucking face
Lose the self-righteousness
You have nothing to prove
You can't hurt me baby if I have nothing to lose
And You're
Still Insecure
But I'm not conflicted no more, no
I intend to close every possible door
And You're
Still Insecure
But I'm not conflicted no more, no
I intend to close every possible door
So insecure, so insecure
Oh no
Just try and lie to me once more
The lyrics to Riot Course's song "Insecure" convey a sense of strength and resolve in the face of someone's insecurities and attempts to bring the singer down. The singer starts by expressing a reluctance to discuss the situation, as it always seems to lead to something negative. They then suggest pretending that the past events never happened, as the weight of it all is weighing them down but also making them stronger.
The singer acknowledges that they possibly could have endured the situation for longer, but they are firm in their convictions and resilient against any conflicts or friction. Despite this, the person they are addressing remains insecure. The singer declares that they are no longer conflicted and determined to close every possible door, indicating their intention to move on and sever ties with the person causing them distress.
They challenge the person to call them one more time and try to slander their name, but point out that they lacked the courage and faith to tell them the truth directly. The singer advises the person to let go of their self-righteousness because they have nothing to prove. They affirm that any attempts to hurt them will be futile, as they have nothing left to lose.
The song concludes with a repetition of the insinuation that the other person is still insecure, but the singer is no longer conflicted. They assert their determination to close every possible door and not be swayed by any further lies.
