I been putting my shit down
And forgetting where I put it
I been calling myself stupid
Even though I know I shouldn't
My friends been by my side
At compliments I roll my eyes
They saying that I'm good enough
But I don't know what's good enough
I'll figure it out with time
They been building me up
I keep putting myself down
Forgetting where that is
But I guess it's called the ground
I told my friend I was thinking
Of giving up with nothing left
Didn't know how I would do it
Seemed like it was for the best
My friend left me a note
Remember it was on my desk
I could hardly bare to read it
So embarrassed by what I'd said
But every time I read it it was clear
It only took a hundred times
That note was my map out of here
All he asked was if I was fine
They been building me up
I keep putting myself down
Forgetting where that is
But I guess it's called the ground
My dad's dad wasn't there for him
When it comes up I see him getting sad
Last night before we went to bed I said "I love you"
And he said "I love you" back
I been running through a maze
With no sense of direction
These trials should be a reminder
But I never paid attention
Every time I look in the mirror
I forget who I'm looking at
But I see he's sending me a smile
So I send a smile back
They been building me up
I keep putting myself down
Forgetting where that is
But I guess it's called the ground
They been building me up
I keep putting myself down
Forgetting where that is
But I guess it's called the ground
And forgetting where I put it
I been calling myself stupid
Even though I know I shouldn't
My friends been by my side
At compliments I roll my eyes
They saying that I'm good enough
But I don't know what's good enough
I'll figure it out with time
They been building me up
I keep putting myself down
Forgetting where that is
But I guess it's called the ground
I told my friend I was thinking
Of giving up with nothing left
Didn't know how I would do it
Seemed like it was for the best
My friend left me a note
Remember it was on my desk
I could hardly bare to read it
So embarrassed by what I'd said
But every time I read it it was clear
It only took a hundred times
That note was my map out of here
All he asked was if I was fine
They been building me up
I keep putting myself down
Forgetting where that is
But I guess it's called the ground
My dad's dad wasn't there for him
When it comes up I see him getting sad
Last night before we went to bed I said "I love you"
And he said "I love you" back
I been running through a maze
With no sense of direction
These trials should be a reminder
But I never paid attention
Every time I look in the mirror
I forget who I'm looking at
But I see he's sending me a smile
So I send a smile back
They been building me up
I keep putting myself down
Forgetting where that is
But I guess it's called the ground
They been building me up
I keep putting myself down
Forgetting where that is
But I guess it's called the ground
