Maybe my best
Wasn't enough
But it was fun
Wasn't it love
In another life
I'd win first prize
But I'm still thankful
For the ride
My participation trophy
It laughs in my face
I ended up good, but I wanna be great
Kinda embarrassed
Kind of ashamed
Thought that the world would remember my name
Foolish young girl who wanted fame
Should I give up
Should I let go
Will it be embarrassing when I get old
Fallacy of sunken cost
Maybe I've already lost
My participation trophy
It laughs in my face
I ended up good, but I wanna be great
Tell me the truth, did I do okay
Behind my back what does everyone say
Did I just waste my life
Chasing a dream that will never arrive
My participation trophy
It laughs in my face
I ended up good, but I wanna be great
Sorry to everyone who believed
Guess I just wasn't meant to succeed
Toss in the towel, lay down your arms
Try to be happy right where you are
