Can't be your gold star
'Cause I just got this far
I can't hold your secrets
Got my own to deal with
Mom thinks I'll find a man
She'll never understand
Thirteen straight to thirty
Big smile but I'm still hurting, hurting

Better late than never
Tegan told me not to worry
Piecing it together, happened in a hurry
Lesbian of the Year, how the hell did I get here?
Heavy from the pressure, they all know my story
Wish I had the answer for a friend of Dorothy
Lesbian of the Year
How the hell did I get here? (Yeah)

Here (Yeah)
Here (Yeah)
Here (Yeah)

Parasocial life
I'm no socialite
Wish I knew my younger self
She could've used my help
Heaven is on earth
Yeah, she's just a girl
You'll know when you find her
I'm just your reminder—
Find her

Better late than never
Tegan told me not to worry
Piecing it together, happened in a hurry
Lesbian of the Year, how the hell did I get here?
Heavy from the pressure, they all know my story
Wish I had the answer for a friend of Dorothy
Lesbian of the Year
How the hell did I get here? (Yeah)

Better late than never (yeah)
Here (yeah)
Better late than never (yeah)
Here (yeah)
Better late than never (yeah)
Here (yeah)
Better late than never (yeah)
