I was never a good kid
I had to sit on my hands
Stay still tied down (tight)
I had to force myself (I had to force myself)
And then I was a good girl
I kept to myself
Daydream, big smile
You’ll go far
Oh you’ll do so well
(No one knows your reasons)
I tell you that it’s over
(Trading on a can)
I know it’s unfair
(Hard enough to see you)
Maybe we were alright
(We can keep our plans)
But not the best I ever had
(Treat me like a stranger)
Maybe it’s okay
(Love me like the bends)
Making you mad
(Distance in the details)
But I can’t go on living inside the drag
Take your medication
Stick to the plan
Days weeks go by (I)
Still have to force myself (I have to force myself)
And I try meditation
I’m holier now
Bad dreams, fake smiles
You’ve come far girl
You’ve done so well
(No one knows your reasons)
I tell you that it’s over
(Trading on a can)
I know it’s unfair
(Hard enough to see you)
Maybe we were alright
(We can keep our plans)
But not the best I ever had
(Treat me like a stranger)
Maybe it’s okay
(Love me like the bends)
Making you mad
(Distance in the details)
But I can’t go on living inside the drag
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Take your medication
(Still have to force yourself)
(No one knows your reasons)
I tell you that it’s over
(Trading on a can)
I know it’s unfair
(Hard enough to see you)
Maybe we were alright
(We can keep our plans)
But not the best I ever had
(Treat me like a stranger)
Maybe it’s okay
(Love me like the bends)
Making you mad
(Distance in the details)
But I can’t go on living inside the drag
