"Please People" lyrics

"Please People"

Everybody said I need boundaries
Then they walk all over walk all over me
Everybody said I need to speak up
Then they talk all over me

It's overwhelming
When you tell me to change
But then you don't

Don't wanna set myself on fire
To keep you warm
Don't wanna lift you higher
To make me small
Please people, please people
I don't wanna please people anymore

Please people
Please people
I don't really want to
Please people
Please people

Tired of how I always come second
Gotta stand up, gotta stand up for me
You act like I'm holding
A loaded weapon when
I speak my peace...

It's overwhelming
When you tell me to change
But then you don't

Don't wanna set myself on fire
To keep you warm
Don't wanna lift you higher
To make me small
Please people, please people
I don't wanna please people anymore

Please people
Please people
I don't really want to
Please people
Please people

Please people
Please people
I don't really want to
Please people
Please people

It's overwhelming when you
Tell me to change
Hmmm...
But then I do and then you think
It's so strange

Don't wanna set myself on fire
To keep you warm
Don't wanna lift you higher
To make me small
Please people, please people
I don't wanna please people anymore
