LYRICS
If you would’ve told me
I’d throw away my purity ring
In the middle of an airport
My younger self would laugh
Would never believe that
It’s against everything that we stood for
She’d hate that I've smoke weed
And cuss frequently
And she’d try to convert
Everyone I call a bestie
You’ll throw shots in the dark
Then blackout at a bar
There will be good and there will be bad parts
Someday you’ll kiss a girl and you’ll panic
Some guy will break your heart and you’ll feel manic
Then You’ll learn to let people have their opinions
And talk about your traumas and like the body you live in
Someday you’ll learn to keep your own secrets
Say you’re doing okay and really mean it
You’ll lose your faith a bit
And question if she’s you
And for awhile you might not like her
But I do
Somedays feel like whiplash
One eighties and you’ll hate that
You’ll label yourself just to take it back
Convince yourself you’re not bi
Cause you’re way too into guys
And the first time you have sex you’ll cry
You’ll sometimes skip meals
And numb how you feel
And you’ll miss the old you but here’s the deal
The good girl you were was really fucking bad at being real
Someday you’ll think you disappoint your parents
But they’ll love you not despite but regardless
Then you’ll learn to let people have shitty opinions
And talk about your traumas and like the body you live in
Someday you’ll learn to keep your own secrets
Say you’re doing okay and really mean it
You’ll lose your faith a bit and question if shes you
And for awhile you might not like her but I do

#maddiezahm #youmightnotlikeher #pride
I honestly have very few words to describe how I feel right now. My coming out story was pretty messy as it normally is even coming from a very progressive home. When we began filming my classic, Northwestern, Patagonia loving, attention hating dad asked if id cast he and my mom as themselves to give him the chance to respond the way he wish he could've and wanted to. That moment between my parents and I is a one take, real coming out and I am so honored and grateful to have had that moment with them. I will cherish this video forever because of that. I don't know how long I get to do this artist thing, but I will never stop waking up in awe that a soon to be teacher from Idaho found herself through music. I love you all.
You have created an absolute masterpiece. I’m so glad I found you on TikTok! You have inspired me and so many others with your music, Maddie. THANK YOU💓
I think you're amazing Maddie. Thank you for sharing real feelings and real moments with us. You're so brave 💕
THANK YOU. 🥰
You are amazing, Maddie! This song is everything 🥹
Thank you for sharing this with us it means a lot.
This made me sob. The scene where she’s crying eating cut me deep and “you’ll say you’re doing ok and really mean it”. I don’t think you understand how many of us are realizing we aren’t the only ones who dealt with these things because of your song. Thank you, from my younger self who needed this, just thank you.
honestly SAMMMMEEE😇
I want to say the same thing, but change "my younger self" to "my current self" because I just discovered last year that I'm bi, and my parents still don't know, they will never accept it... however I still don't like myself, and I know I will hate alot of the stuff my future self will do, but I came to terms with it I guess... for now
Me too at the same part
It's taken me so long to be okay with the way I look or how I act. I've just started saying "Im okay" instead of "Im fine"
My daughter is 13 and she’s never had to come out because it’s just always been known and accepted, by me, at least. For all those struggling out there, you are perfect just the way you are. I could never imagine my daughter for one second not feeling accepted for who she was. It’s heartbreaking to even think about. Sending everyone who’s scared or hurting right now a huge, comforting hug. Happy Pride 🌈❤️
Amazing mamma...❤️ that's how it should be . I'd hate to think my kids couldn't tell me anything ...as a parent all you want is your child to be happy, safe,loved
@Nicole MacDonald Thank you so much for that. I'm also 13 and queer but my parents aren't really accepting of me but it makes me happy to know that there are parents out there who are. Your daughter is very lucky and Happy Pride!
what if she's just straight u nutbag.
@@poppysedge Hi Lisa 👋 How’re you today?
This song made me cry so bad in the best way possible.
Where was this gem hidden till now?
How can we make it viral, so everyone could accept themselves
I’m straight, but this song has me bawling. I was always the big kid so I related to that aspect so much. (And being a non-Mormon in Utah so I was always the “deviant.”) Wasn’t til I hit 30 that I became comfortable in my skin. This song will help so many people, not matter what they’re going through. God, the idea of being able to hug younger me is making me feel all the feels. 😭 Thank you for your bravery and your art.
I hate being a bi non mormon in utah, so many kids just hate you for it
as a teen who is struggling with body image , constantly thinking that im disappointing my parents... this song gives me so much comfort that things will get better
I'm so proud of you. You have written something that has touched the hearts of so many. What a beautiful anthem for pride and what a healing gift for all of us.
I don’t know how to convey how much this song means to so many people, in the past 4 days I’ve had over 7 people point this song out to me and say this lyric or this lyric means something. But the truth for me is, it means so much, every word hits and as a lesbian growing up in the Catholic Church I had so much fear, and when I came out I was met with nothing but support from my family, despite having the fear in me. Thank you for expressing what so many other have tried, so easily. Thank you Maddie. I can’t wait to see what other genius you come up with

This song changed my life. I had been crushed by my faith for a long time and was only too afraid to leave. This song stopped me from telling myself I was unclean and unworthy anymore. Now idk where my faith is but I am finally at peace for the first time in my life
I just came out as bi and this song is just comforting to me!!!!! You are such an inspiration I hope you know that!!!! 🤍
This song sings to me on so many levels. I don't think I've ever liked who I am, but I draw strength from these artists every day.
I cried when I heard this song. It really spoke to me . Especially the line " talk about your trauma's and like the body you live in" I am learning to do that and this song I've adopted as an anthem. Thank you for writing it! ❤
Every time I watch this video I sob so much,I'm on my journey of acceptance,trying my best to move myself,avoiding toxic people. This song and video has a very special place in my heart
My mother. Me. My sisters. We all cried and sat together. Thank you Maddie. You put words and music to a struggle that was so hard to explain. Truly. Thank you
My goodness, all your songs...I keep crying....thank you, for helping me know I'm not the only one
I've struggled with body image issues, and depression, but your music shines a light in the darkness that so many people need. You are a gift, and a hero for sharing your story.
you don’t understand how much this song and video means to me and so many other people. so relatable and heartbreaking, but freeing at the same time. i can’t stop watching
Im crying so hard, this is absolutely beautiful in so many different ways. Thank you for deciding to release this song because its going to mean so much to so many different people.

First time hearing this song - because of a TikTok suggestion. Now I am sobbing in my office like a big baby. The kind of sob that comes from deep down. Tears of relief - a voice and words that truly need to be heard. Absolutely beautiful.
Goosebumps. Every. Where. My heart ached for so long for a song like this
I just screamed this song in my car as loud as I could, literally sobbing the entire time. I’ve never in all 41 years on this earth felt more validated and seen in my life. I love this for all of us, thank you ❤️🩹 music really is the soundtrack of our lives
I’ve watched multiple times and can’t help but cry every time… it’s hard not to see similarities in our stories so thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing yours. You are an ICON! ❤️
my friend said that i should listen to this song, and im sobbing so much. i really went to very similar experiences as you. the line "convince yourself you're not bi cause you're way too into guys" really hits me. im still struggling with knowing who i am and this label thing. im also trying to not care about people's opinions and that they talk about traumas but i will accept that someone will like my body someday but i have to like myself first. also, i feel really heard and seen, i always thought that no one could have been through similar or the same experiences that i did. this is a really emotional song that i identify with it 100%. thank you so much, your music moves people. again, i need to say: i finally feel heard and seen. thank you maddie
oh my god how i aspire to get to this point in life. things might suck right now but i know it’s always darkest before the day and i have to keep going to see this all pay off
This song brings me to tears every time I hear it. And to me, those are the best kinds of songs! ❤️
you literally saved my life with your music your so good at captivating your emotions and translating them into making them a beautiful relatable song for so many people around the world. you truly are amazing maddie i love you so so much and watching you go through this journey to self love and acceptance is the most beautiful thing i have ever seen and i’m so honored to be apart of it. ❤️🩹

wow I’m in tears. Beautiful beautiful song. Really in love with the two songs you released and can’t wait for the rest. Wow
I keep coming back to this video and wow, I can't get enough. Makes me cry (but in a good way)
This song touched parts of my soul that have been deeply hidden until recently.
You are an absolute fucking gift to this world, Maddie. Thank you for sharing your heart, no matter what.
thank you for giving me something to listen to while coming to terms with being a lesbian. i’ve never even liked saying the word lesbian, and because i tried to be as straight as possible for my parents, i had short term boyfriends who never filled the needs i had. i met my girlfriend in january, who’s family is so supportive and loving, and i finally feel at peace with who i am. i even came out publicly and to my family (who were not supportive, my siblings were at least).
Hi Margaret 👋. How’re you doing?
You dont know how much I relate to this and have sobbed to this so much ever since I first listened to it. Thank you for this.
This song gives me healing tears.
I’ve been dealing with a lot of body dysmorphia and with some imposter syndrome about being bi.. this song made me feel really seen and I can see it being one I revisit to help me heal ❤️
This cut me deep hating my body at the swimming pool I felt and hating myself and holding unto my trauma was holding me back but this song makes my younger self and older self happy to be who we are so thank you Maddy
Just discovering the wonderful, beautiful and amazingly talented Maddie ❤❤❤
Holy shit. I'm at my parents house for Father's Day and....this...this is it. This is a lot of what I felt until I left to find myself. I came back someone different, I came back as ME.
I think finding yourself is one of life’s greatest joys because you feel whole. There is a kind of warmth associated with it that is incredible.
Definitely worth the wait , this song speaks to me on a soul deep level.

I can’t wait! I’m staying up till 12 to watch the premiere, and I’m so excited. It’s been wonderful to get to watch your journey, and I feel so lucky to have been a part of this story.
So much chills from this song
you become who your child self would feel safe with. whenever you think bad about yourself, remember who you’re talking to
I’m at a point where when I am watching this instead of imagining talking to my childhood self I am imagining my older self talking to me where I am now . I’m 22 but it doesn’t mean we ever stop growing as people and I just wanted to comment this because it’s not a way I’ve ever listened to this song before.
I got actual chills and started getting teary eyed this is a work of art, and I love that it can resonate with so many different people. Thank you for creating this you have a stunning voice, and your simply stunning.
Wow! So Good!
“That good girl you were was really f***ing bad at being real…”
Dang that hits hard.
Beautiful, powerful, & unashamedly raw.. And just look at these comments - at _just_ how deeply this resonates with so many speaks volumes. We’re all walking miracles, uniquely one of a kind, all the while being one in the same.
✌️ 💕 Telling myself what I wish I could convince myself of…Gotta try to continue keepin’ on, to hold on, and hope for better days.
Maddie ❤️
I cantttt, this video is so touching, all the past versions of yourself 😭
This is the first time I have ever listen to a song and 100% understood and felt what you were talking about… thank you so much!!!
This puts my experience in a song and I can’t listen to it without crying. I’ve come so far and it’s so different from what as a little girl believed about myself
Maddie… this song, these lyrics, your voice, I don’t have words. So impactful. So important. So valuable. Thank you for sharing this with us
See a psychologist. Insane asylums have plenty of openings nowadays.
Thank you so much for making this song, it hits home for me. I couldn’t help but cry when listening to it. Growing up in a religious home it’s hard to accept yourself because you feel it’s wrong. Once I turned 30 I finally felt comfortable with myself, still can’t come out to my family but I have a husband and friends who accept me for who I am. I wish I could go back and tell younger me it’s going to be okay, and you’re going to make it.
This is incredible. I can't tell you how much this resonates with the masses. It can mean so many different things. I'm so glad for you ❤️
I just burst into tears listening to this song. I like her too. Thank you.
oh wow this song... no words. the lyrics, the melody, the feelings the emotion, it's just all there. I love this, I love you. ❤️ Thank you for this.
I’m in tears… this song is so beautiful
I'm so happy songs like these are here now. I needed these growing up🥺
Had to get up and close my office door cause this song made me sob. I have literally never related more to a song in my life. Literally every part of this song, made me feel less alone. Like someone out there is feeling what I'm feeling.
I cried the first second it panned to her younger self. I knew it was coming, and still, just tears streaming
Most Realistic song I’ve ever heard…understood, related with, sobbed too. This is everything.
I haven't found a song that could make me feel so much until i found this song. It made me very emotional and i could feel each and every lyrics through. I can't believe i just found this song now.
I cry every single time I hear this song. I appreciate you and your music so so much ♥️ thank you for reaching out and touching so many lives 💕
my younger self is screaming from the rooftops thank you. this song opened up a part of me i didnt know existed. the raw emotions you opened up in me makes me so happy because finally someone else knows how i felt. thank you. so much. thank you a million times
This was very moving. I was so touched after coming across this randomly on Spotify, I had to google the artist and was pleasantly surprised to see that young girl from American Idol a few years ago! I HAD to see the music video. So, so moving. I’m a mental health therapist who works with kids, teens, and young adults, and am always looking for music to bring with me to sessions. Keeping this one in my cycle for sure. So proud of you that you can live your truth, and so humble that you were willing to share your story with us all through song ❤️
"Someday, you’ll think you disappoint your parents
But they’ll love you not despite, but regardless"
This. This is what I've told my young daughters since forever. My love is UNCONDITIONAL. I would never love them even if they were queer/bi/ polyamorous/etc.
I love them.
THEM.
PERIOD.
My heart goes out to all those who have had the people that should have been there always for them fail in the most basic parental role: Love your child.
My oldest daughter is young. Going into her tween years. But I know once she starts on this world of exploring her love, she will be Bi. And she has a thing for blondes (though I don't think she realizes it yet. But I've seen it.). I just hope that in the future she brings home someone(s) who loves and respect her. I've hopefully raised her so that she loves and respects her partner(s) as well.
But no matter what, she will be loved. Regardless.
That is unconditional love.
Thank you, Maddie. You gave to the world a gift with this song. Not just to those that needed to hear that they are not alone in there feelings and that it's ok to love themselves but to the those that have always loved them so much no matter what.
I look forward to your ongoing and glorious career. And to all who have made it through this post and need live and support, there are so many people that wake up and choose kindness and support. I hope you build a chosen family with those people in the forefront. And I would be honored if I were to be a part of that family.
Love you not despite but regardless. Such powerful words I love it
This is a beautiful gift for the rest of us. Wow. Thank you for sharing your soul. 💕😭
I don’t know how you manage to write all my thoughts and experiences and yet here we are. I hope you know how much of a difference your music is making 💜
Why am i crying im literally sobbing
Maddie I do not have the words to express how much this song means to me. Thank you ❤️
This is SO pure. It’s made me realise why I cry everytime I see a picture of myself as a kid. We keep that forever
Don't mind me just sitting here sobbing 🥺. Thank you for this beautiful amd carthartic piece of art 💜
"Someday, you'll think you disappoint your parents
But they'll love you, not despite, but regardless."
What's gets me most about this one is that she says "you'll think". Not that you will. I feel that in the depths of my being.
I’m so happy that I’m not the only one that was sobbing the whole video. 🥲
Crying. This is the best thing I've ever heard in my years of living
I heard this for the first time last night and I have listened to it about twenty times since then
Bro the song has made me cry already, but the video made me sob. Executed amazingly and song is on repeat and probably will always be
Here I am listening to this for the 800th time and still holding back tears.
I discovered this artist via TikTok and honestly she is the artist I have felt most identified ever. I really apreciate your honestity through your music and enjoy all your messages
This song means so much to me. I’m crying 🥺
This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever listened to and watched. You have a Mexican fan now.
Maddie, I’m crying. I’ve followed you on TikTok for a while and I love this song. This video is a work of art. Thank you so much!!!!! I’m so proud of you.
She deserves all the recognition in the world, this song, the lyrics are so beautifully raw and just what I need to hear right now
Cried my eyes out
Thanks Maddie 🥹❤️
Frickin goosebumps. This is Quality. Bravo 🙌😭👏👏
I relate to some, but definitely not all, but this song is so powerful!!! I love it so much!!!
this broke me. thank you for writing this song
I just heard this for the first time and I am crying. You are so brave💕
I actually love love love when greatness comes in to play
I was scrolling through UA-cam looking for something to listen to and this came up. I love this because it's such an amazingly well done visual of what I had come to terms with recently. Thank you for your art and moving the rest of us for moving the rest of us forward with you❤
i wasnt expecting to sob at this video as I usually dont cry at this song but something about it really struck a chord in me-
Shit.. idk the last time I found a song I related to so intensely.
Body issues, religious guilt, bi panic, throwing away my promise ring.. little me would be terrified to see who I've become but I've never felt more free and I'm so, so glad I can be myself even if that means I'll never be accepted by family.
Thank you so much for making this.
Yesterday was the first Pride my city had in 3 years (Yeah, we know it's August. This is when we do Pride.) And it was like I was there for the first time. I heard a little bit of this song, and didn't really pay attention at the time. But I stayed near the stage as the bands finished their sets and the drag performers started. And I don't think I've never experienced that much collective joy. Of just people loving themselves without shame. I came home last night and looked up the song. I stayed up all night watching TikToks of people's coming out stories. And I started crying. Went to bed close to 6 AM, woke up around 11, and picked up crying right where I left off. Because suddenly I wasn't concerned with not living up to my parents expectations, but my own. I've lost so many years being afraid. And I don't want to live like that anymore.
Best song of our time!! Actually has meaning.
This song hits different cuz I used to go to church and then I found out I liked girls to and this song is perfect keep it up i love all ur songs thank you for sharing your experience so people don’t feel alone so much love ❤❤
Body issues,questioning your sexuality,and religious guilt and misogyny.This song is so true it hurts.
me at 24 learning how to run with my inner child and become comfortable with my body and who i am. thank you for this 🥺
My daughter sent this to me … she’s a lesbian and never been with a guy… she had a purity ring (I had it made personally for her.) this song hit me like a ton of bricks. As parents, we need to be better! Maddie thank you for sharing your story. I love you 💕
Hearing you say this with so much humility, gentility, grace, and LOVE for your child, and compassion for yourself, feels incredibly healing to me and it seems that you and your daughter have a relationship of love. I pray strength and humility for you both and thank you for operating out of love!
❤❤❤
Thank you ❤
❤❤❤
She deserves all the recognition in the world, this song, the lyrics are so beautifully raw and just what I need to hear right now
Cried my eyes out
Thanks Maddie 🥹❤️
The minute she started running with her younger self, bye. I absolutely lost it & started sobbing. The little girl was smiling the whole time, & the adult you was more serious. And that analogy just hit me like a truck. I’ve never had a song\music video affect
Me the way this one does. Absolutely beautiful. ❤️
Yup that's when I lost it as well. This was really deep and beautiful.
Jesus loves her, and I do too. ❤️
Yes!!!
Yes! Instant tears with that part
Yup, big sobs!!! Glad I was alone in the house, lol! 😭😭😭
Body issues,questioning your sexuality,and religious guilt and misogyny.This song is so true it hurts.
facts
Same girl as a lesbian girl this song hit hard
Facts
I'm leaving this comment here so after a month or a year when someone likes it, I get reminded of this song ❤
It's a year later
@@lamarjackson7405 lol nw 2yr
It’s 2 years❤
its two years later
This song is a gift. This music video is impossible not to cry to. I think a lot of us relate to it, even if our stories aren’t the same. It’s incredibly powerful. THANK YOU! ❤️❤️😭
Exactly. I’m non-binary trans but most of it feels so similar.
I feel like this song shows many of us relate to it well at some point or all points of it. She is an amazing singer and storyteller and I am a huge fan now
