Violet Skies Never Be Cool Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Grew up in a small world
Big dreams for a small girl
Thought that winning put the cool kids on your team
But there I was, fifteen, no boyfriend
Only books and achievements
Never asked to the school dance but I dreamed

[Pre-Chorus]
I've always wondered if the popular kids even liked each other, I
Or maybe they're all just trying to be somebody that they're not
'Cause I'm not

[Chorus]
Looking back on wasted youth
Wishing I had learned to lose
Even though I'm trying my best
Maybe I should accept
That I'll never be cool

[Verse 2]
A choir girl, self-conscious
A try-hard, if I'm honest
Too scared to smoke a cigarette, I never will
But now I stand a little tall, a little different
I'm still a loser, but I mean it
When I say I like the way I've settled in my skin
[Pre-Chorus]
I've always wondered if the popular kids even liked each other, I Or maybe they're all just trying to be somebody that they're not
'Cause I'm not

[Chorus]
Looking back on wasted youth
Wishing I had learned to lose
Even though I'm trying my best
Maybe I should accept
That I'll never be cool
Watching as the river runs
Finding out who I've become
Even though I'm trying my best
Maybe I should accept
That I'll never be cool

[Bridge]
No, I'll never, no, no, no I'll never
No, I'll never, no, no, no I'll never
No, I'll never, no, no, no I'll never
No, I'll never be cool

[Chorus]
Looking back on wasted youth
Wishing I had learned to lose
Even though I'm trying my best
Maybe I should accept
That I'll never be cool
Watching as the river runs
Finding out who I've become
Even though I'm trying my best
Maybe I should accept
That I'll never be cool
