This song is about coming to terms with growth and self-acceptance even when you are still trying to figure out who you are. He comes to terms that it’s pointless to figure it out as long as you get by, but watching others go through the journey he went through is arguably harder for him to witness.
[Verse 1]
If you really wanna know I'm full of self doubt
But to be honest, it has never brought me down, no no no no
I’m really glad I'm not walking around
Believing my inflated ape brain has figured it out
[Chorus]
And suddenly you realize
That everything you ever told yourself were lies
And believe me I can sympathize
Cause everything I ever thought I was made me cry
Like oooooooooooh
[Verse 2]
And I'm really glad I don’t take part
In your big search for who you are
And I don't care that I sound arrogant
But knowing who you are is just for amateurs
[Chorus]
And suddenly you realize
Yeah, that everything you ever told yourself were lies
And believe me I can sympathize
Oh, still everything you ever thought you were made me cry
[Bridge]
To be honest it made me wanna die, inside
And I'm sure I did, but just a little bit
[Chorus]
And suddenly you realize
That everything you'd ever told yourself were lies
And believe me I can sympathize
Cause everything I ever thought I was made me cry
And suddenly you realize
That everything you ever told yourself were lies
And believe me I can sympathize
Still everything you ever thought you were made me cry
