Safe
Relatable jealousy and self-esteem themes, no explicit content
Detailed Analysis
These lyrics deal with social media comparison, jealousy, and self-esteem issues in a relatable and emotionally honest way. There is no explicit language, sexual content, violence, or drug/alcohol references. The song touches on mild mental health themes such as low self-worth and envy, but frames them in a self-aware, introspective manner. The message ultimately acknowledges these feelings as unhealthy ('comparison is killin' me slowly') without glorifying them. The themes are highly relevant to pre-teens and teenagers navigating social media culture and peer comparison. The content is age-appropriate for younger audiences, though younger teens may benefit from a conversation about the feelings described.

Lyrics
I kinda wanna throw my phone across the room 'Cause all I see are girls too good to be true With paper-white teeth and perfect bodies Wish I didn't care I know their beauty's not my lack But it feels like that weight is on my back And I can't let it go Com-comparison is killin' me slowly I think I think too much 'Bout kids who don't know me I'm so sick of myself I'd rather be, rather be Anyone, anyone else My jealousy, jealousy Started followin' me (he-he-he, he) Started followin' me (he-he-he, he) And I see everyone gettin' all the things I want I'm happy for them, but then again, I'm not Just cool vintage clothes and vacation photos I can't stand it Oh God, I sound crazy Their win is not my loss I know it's true But I can't help gettin' caught up in it all Com-comparison is killin' me slowly I think I think too much 'Bout kids who don't know me I'm so sick of myself Rather be, rather be Anyone, anyone else My jealousy, jealousy (yeah) All your friends are so cool, you go out every night In your daddy's nice car, yeah, you're livin' the life Got a pretty face, a pretty boyfriend too I wanna be you so bad, and I don't even know you All I see is what I should be Happier, prettier, jealousy, jealousy All I see is what I should be I'm losin' it, all I get's jealousy, jealousy Com-comparison is killin' me slowly I think I think too much 'Bout kids who don't know me I'm so sick of myself Rather be, rather be (oh, oh) Anyone, anyone else (anybody else) Jealousy, jealousy Oh, I'm so sick of myself I'd rather be, rather be (oh-oh) Anyone, anyone else Jealousy, jealousy Started followin' me
