This song is about how at times she feels very bad about herself and scared that she can’t be herself around others, whether it be about her struggles with gender dysphoria or general anxiety, saying that she’ll just stay inside and hide herself from the world.
There are times where I wish that I could go to the beach
Hear the waves, feel the sand, take in the breeze
Cause I like staying home but I love the sun, I wanna go out and have some fun
Maybe bring my ukulele, I know that it sounds crazy cause that instrument is overdone
But at the same time, I don't wanna go outside because dysphoria is killing me
I don't wanna be around other people
If they don't wanna be around me
If all these other people could just leave me be, we could live in perfect harmony
But I'm getting anxious thoughts, and I want them to stop, about everyone harming me
So I will stay inside (I will stay inside)
I will stay inside (But I might still try)
I will stay inside (I'll find a place to hide)
I will stay inside, I will stay inside
There are times where I wish I could just be me
Be myself, no one else, I just wanna be free
Maybe wear some comfy clothes and just stay inside because I feel like I need to hide
Cause there's a whole lot of people in this scary world who really want me to die
But at the same time, I don't wanna go outside because dysphoria is killing me
I don't wanna be around other people, if they don't wanna be around me
If all these other people could just leave me be, we could live in perfect harmony
But I'm getting anxious thoughts, and I want them to stop, about everyone harming me
So I will stay inside (I will stay inside)
I will stay inside (But I might still try)
I will stay inside (I'll find a place to hide)
I will stay inside, I will stay inside
So I will stay inside (I will stay inside)
I will stay inside (But I might still try)
I will stay inside (I'll find a place to hide)
I will stay inside, I will stay inside
So I will stay inside (I will stay inside)
I will stay inside (But I might still try)
I will stay inside (I'll find a place to hide)
I will stay inside, I will stay inside
