[Verse 1]
I could tell you my old friends are jealous of my new friends
Because I spend more time with them
But I've got no new friends
I could tell you that I'm winning, I could tell you I'm on top
I could tell you 'bout the women and the money that I've got
But I've got none
[Pre-Chorus]
We're not all meant to be a star
Some of us are better off as we are
And that's okay
[Chorus]
I know it hurts, I know it burns
I know this is the last place
That you would've wanted to turn
It's a lesson learned
[Verse 2]
I could tell you my mind's set and that I'm doing fine again
'Cause I got it back on track
But I wouldn't lie to you like that
[Pre-Chorus]
We're not all meant to be a star
Some of us are better off as we are
And that's okay
[Chorus]
I know it hurts, I know it burns
I know this is the last place
That you would've wanted to turn
It's a lesson learned
I know the scars upon your skin
Remind you of the scars within
I know you don't understand right now
But sometimes you have to lose to win
[Bridge]
Nobody knows me, nobody's shown me the way
I don't feel brave (And that's okay)
I don't want a world to beat and I don't want a part centre stage
And that's okay
Yeah, that's okay
[Chorus]
I know it hurts, I know it burns
I know this is the last place
That you would've wanted to turn
It's a lesson learned (It's a lesson learned)
I know the scars (I know the scars) upon your skin
Remind you of the scars within
I know you don't understand right now
But sometimes you have to lose to win (To lose to win)
And that's okay
