Boys fall in love with me for the words I spew
If you read a hundred books you might pick up a few
Made me feel self conscious about the way I talked
and wonder if my hips swayed enough when I walked
wished they'd appreciate me for the stuff inside
Cuz when it comes down to it I'd rather die
Then bare my soul to someone I barely knew
I don't rest my head at night because of you
You crawled inside of me, we traded brains
Your voice echoes on repeat, slowly drives me insane
All the others only admired the shell
when you left it cut deep, I still wish you well
Blocked numbers so you don't pick up the call
You were my best mistake, no love lost at all
If only suicides were reversible....
Cuz then at least you'd love me at my funeral
