"Wasted Potential" lyrics

My skin
Has never felt like mine
I bare my bones and shared the ghosts that haunt behind my eyes
In everything I write
They don't see the price

A perfect version of myself
A character on a screen
I roll the reel
Erase the slate
Cut out the honesty
All the things I hide
I'm afraid they'll find
'Cause when I stand in the light
They'll see my shadows from behind

What if I choke?
Try to fake it, but make myself a joke
What if I'm just a waste of potential?
(Woah)
Where do I go?
If I'm standing on the stage all alone?
If no one's gonna sing along at my shows?
(Woah)
Where do I go?

When you see my face, what kind of taste does that leave in your mouth?
If you shrink me down to shut my mouth, would that make you stand out?
Call me oversaturated
Tell me I'm your fucking favorite
I'm the greatest imitation 'til y'all know what my name is

What if I choke?
Try to fake it, but make myself a joke
What if I'm just a waste of potential?
(Woah)
Where do I go?
If I'm standing on the stage all alone?
If no one's gonna sing along at my shows?
(Woah)
Where do I go?

Where do I go?
If I'm standing on the stage all alone?
