    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

    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.

    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.

      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

    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 🌈❤️

    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 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

    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).

    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.

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.

    "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.

    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.

      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!

    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. ❤️
