You want me to be your manic pixie dream girl So today I am a gardener I’ll plant daisies and you can put them in my hair Tomorrow you’ll fall in love with the freckles on my nose I’ll make you sing along to bands you’ve never heard of We’ll stop on the side of a highway to watch the sunset I’ll remind you of what it feels like to be alive You tell me to be a supporting character in your great adventure So I’ll tag along behind you Make you stop and look at bugs on the sidewalk You’ll love the way I’m not like other girls I’ll get a tattoo of a flower on my ribs You’ll call me amaryllis And I’ll change my name because you want me to I’ll be the garden you grow with your green thumb The one you show off to your friends Make them bask in my beauty until you feel better about yourself Eventually I’ll lose my shimmer No more golden glitter, just dust You’ll write the final chapter of my life Give me the unsuspecting ending you believe I deserve Stuff me in a suitcase and bury me in the backyard Make everyone believe I ran away Chasing a romanticized version of life I could never give
