Top Comments of this video!! :3
You know one of the many reasons why I love this song so much? I've never been in a relationship before so I can never relate to the countless mushy love and crushing heartbreak songs that are out there. But this? I relate to every single line, every single word.
I am currently self-diagnosed with ADHD and likely will never have the money to get a proper diagnosis and medical treatment, not to mention my mom thinks "everyone has a little bit of ADHD in us, you're just lazy and undisciplined." Not to mention I was homeschooled growing up and don't have very many friends, so I never had any emotional support circle to help me with my ADHD symptoms.
I cried listening to this song for the first time, because for once, I know I am not alone in the world. Thank you, Peggy, for blessing my ears with this magical song and for opening the door into a community of people who DO understand. <3

Your song is AMAZINGGG!! I have ADHD and this lyrics are very relatable to me. Sometimes I feel Iām a mess, and before I was diagnosed I used to think I was dumb and compare myself with another kids bc I had a lot of dificulties doing my homework. And your voice is very very very beautiful too ^^ (sorry if my English is a little bad, itās not my native language š§š·)

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I always smile but it doesn't reach my eyes
And I'm forgetful but I promise that I try
It's a curse and a blessing
The way that I'm never resting
My mind's always moving much faster than my mouth
I know what to say but it never comes out right
You know what I mean, right? (You know what I mean, right? No)
[Pre-Chorus]
This party is too loud
The noise makes me stressed out
I know (I know, I know, I know)
Oh, I know
[Chorus]
I'm a mess
But that doesn't make me less than you
I'm naive
But still I wish the best for you
And I may make mistakes that I shouldn't at my age
I know I'm not incompetent
But, damn, you make me feel that way
[Post-Chorus]
You make me feel that way, you makŠµ me feel that way
You make me feel that way, ah
Ah
[Verse 2]
SomŠµtimes my own room is the safest that I feel
And nothing around me feels like it's real
I sit alone in a panic, there's always something I'm forgetting
I always remember the strangest things I've said
When I'm alone at night in my bed
And my head is a choir, and my only desire is for silence, shh
[Pre-Chorus]
And my thoughts are racing
The fear I keep chasing
I know
(Oh, I know)
[Chorus]
I'm a mess
But that doesn't make me less than you
I'm naive
But still I wish the best for you
And I may make mistakes that I shouldn't at my age
I know I'm not incompetent
But, damn, you make me feel that way

I was recently diagnosed with autism and ADHD, but I have suffered all my life and it has affected all areas without exception. The lyrics to your song are exactly everything I said at the therapist appointment. I don't feel ashamed of my diagnosis, I just feel like it's hard to deal with making mistakes I shouldn't at my age. It's also a different feeling to understand who you are after years of thinking you're flawed.
Hugs from Brazil, you've made it this far!

I don't get why everyone here is saying they have ADHD and saying they love it- I wasn't gonna comment but I just wanna let you know that even people who doesn't have ADHD loves this (that includes me) you don't need to have ADHD just to love this, I can relate to this so much and the melody, your voice and everything was made so well, am glad to see this and wish it blows up and you get more recognition <3

I've been listening to this on repeat since hearing it yesterday. I've spent my whole life feeling incompetent and like I dont belong. I'm now, at 28, being assessed for autism/ADHD after a year of realizations.
This song hits so hard and makes me feel so much less alone and empowered to be more confident in myself.
Thank youā”

You just wrote the anthem of my life. Especially the second verse. My family doesnāt understand why I stay in my room so much, itās my own little world! Itās my little place where I can go and dream up stories and characters and the worlds they live in, I can organize things the way I like and no one disturbs it. I can read the books I like and listen to the music I like. It really is my safe space, and I donāt use that term very often. š

I donāt know how you donāt already have a million followers. This is A level content. Youāve got the voice, the songs, the videos. Every person I was attached to like back in my space days blew up. Jason Mraz, Sarah Barielles Regina Spektor I didnāt expect to come here, love this amazing video, and look at the counts and see so little. My prediction, itās just a matter of time. Youāve got IT. So itās a waiting game and Iām here for it now that I know about you. Also my kids are actors as am I, if you ever need to just borrow kids for a fun music video shoot, please hit me up. Much love and light on your journey. ššøš
