0:12Something in my center wants to bloom like it's a wound
0:16Something forgotten in the corner of my room
0:20Crawling the walls and turning circles in my womb
0:24Something I better give up soon
0:27She'll be coming around the corner when she comes
0:31Stiffle her opinions to contribute something dumb
0:35Anything to keep up the illusion that I'm numb
0:38Is everybody having fun?
0:40Then my work here is done
0:43You spineless girl
0:44You should donate your legs because you never stand
0:48You should throw a fucking party you should hire a band
0:52Sit in the center of a big dancefloor and
0:55Where's all the attention you've been asking for?
1:00Are you afraid of the dark?
1:03I am if you are
1:04I'm whatever you are you are
1:08Blame it on my parents or the moon and stars
1:11But maybe I'm just like this
1:16Are you afraid of the dark?
1:19I am if you are
1:20I'm whatever you are you are
1:24Blame it on the nights I got a couple scars
1:27But maybe I'm just like this
1:48Sling shot pistol playground toys
1:51I still can't find a real life boy
1:55'Cause I am a walking dress up chest
1:59I'm bending breaking be my guest
2:03I'll be tumbling down the mountain when I'm done
2:07Creeping up on thirty no excuses that I'm young
2:11Staring down my twenties like the barrell of a gun
2:14Is everybody having fun?
2:16Well then my work here is done
2:19You spineless girl
2:20You should donate your legs because you never stand
2:24You should throw a fucking party you should hire a band
2:28Sit in the center of a big dancefloor and
2:31Where's all the attention you've been asking for?
2:36Are you afraid of the dark?
2:39I am if you are
2:40I'm whatever you are you are
2:44Blame it on my parents or the moon and stars
2:47But maybe I'm just like this
2:52Are you afraid of the dark?
2:55I am if you are
2:57I'm whatever you are you are
3:00Blame it on the nights I got a couple scars
3:03But maybe I'm just like this
3:08Do you see yourself when you look in my eyes?
3:12When you see me walking do you recognize
3:16Your own two feet inside my shoes?
3:20I'd rather be like you
3:40Are you afraid of the dark?
3:43I am if you are
3:45I'm whatever you are you are
3:48Blame it on my parents or the moon and stars
3:51But maybe I'm just like this
3:56Are you afraid of the dark?
3:59I am if you are
4:00I'm whatever you are you are
4:04Blame it on the nights I got a couple scars
4:07But maybe I'm just like this
