If she's a cruise ship, I am a rowboat

She's flying so high while I'm fighting to float

She's the kind of girl the guys would go to bat for

While I stand in the corner of the dance floor

Cause I can't compete with the people around me

Might not be fact, but that's how I feel

Not obsolete yet, fear that I might be

Don't know what's fiction, irrational or real

While she dazzles the crowd as big as can be

I'm the kind of girl on my phone at a party

I draw a knife, she pulls out Excalibur

She is America, I'm the middle country

Cause I can't compete with the people around me

Might not be fact, but that's how I feel

Not obsolete yet, fear that I might be

Don't know what's fiction, irrational or real

Oh, comparison might be the death of me

Playing a constant game of catch up

As the finish line runs away

Comparison will kill me cause I let it

And I can't compete with the people around me

Might not be fact, but that's how I feel

Not obsolete yet, fear that I might be

Don't know what's fiction, irrational or real

And I can't compete
