a song about popular kid trauma | Lifeboat - Heathers | Cover

Hey y'all!

Heathers: The Musical is a dark, rock-infused show set in an American high school in the 1980s. It follows Veronica Sawyer, a smart but insecure girl who tries to fit in with the most powerful clique in school — the three “Heathers” — and ends up confronting bullying, manipulation, and questions of morality.

Heather McNamara is the kindest and most cheerful of the three Heathers — she’s the head cheerleader, the pretty and popular girl everyone envies. But under all the smiles and perfect hair, she’s terrified of being excluded, forgotten, or labeled “weak.”

In “Lifeboat,” she finally cracks. She opens up about what it feels like to constantly perform perfection just to survive — like she’s stuck on a tiny lifeboat with people she knows, and at any moment, she might be the one they throw overboard. Even someone who seems to “have it all” can feel like they’re barely staying afloat.
