I act like a kid, so call me a kid. Rebuke me for each sin that I have hid. I deserve nothing more than your disgust. Yet somehow I seem to have earned your trust. You don't have to make yourself smile for me. I can be quite good at leaving folks be. I can ignore when my heart picksup pace. The trick is to look away from your face. Your laughter I flee. I run from your glance. If your hair is wet, I haven't a chance.

Smack Me, Wake Me Up
I act like a kid, so call me a kid. Rebuke me for each sin that I have hid. I deserve nothing more than your disgust. Yet somehow I seem to have earned your trust. You don't have to make yourself smile for me. I can be quite good at leaving folks be. I can ignore when my heart picksup pace. The trick is to look away from your face. Your laughter I flee. I run from your glance. If your hair is wet, I haven't a chance.
