Pick Me Seat

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I sat by the boys at lunch 'Cause the girls all had their groups Someone laughed and rolled their eyes Like I did something cute They said, "look at her, so fake" "Trying hard to get picked" But I was just saving a seat And trying not to trip [Pre-Chorus] My face went hot My hands shook small I wanted to disappear Into the wall But I stayed right there I looked down slow I heard them say it Again and again [Chorus] I am not a pick me I am just me Just a kid with a lunch tray And a shaky heartbeat I am not a pick me Say it if you need But I know who I am And that's enough for me [Verse 2] I hate how words can sting When you didn't do a thing They turned my backpack into a joke And made me feel less than I smiled like I was fine But I cried when I got home Told my mirror, "don't you listen" When I'm standing all alone [Pre-Chorus] My face went hot My hands shook small I wanted to disappear Into the wall But I stayed right there I looked down slow I heard them say it Again and again [Chorus] I am not a pick me I am just me Just a kid with a lunch tray And a shaky heartbeat I am not a pick me Say it if you need But I know who I am And that's enough for me [Bridge] Maybe someday they'll learn Mean is not a game Maybe they'll grow up And be a little less ashamed I don't need their stamp I don't need their name I just need one place Where I don't feel blamed [Final Chorus] I am not a pick me I am just me Just a kid with a lunch tray And a shaky heartbeat I am not a pick me Say it if you need But I know who I am And that's enough for me I am not a pick me I am still me And I can take my space Even if they disagree
