A Girl

i dont want to be a girl who
neatly folds her hands and stays in the right place
i don't want to be a girl who
bites her tongue and pleads to always have a pretty face
i don't want to be a girl who
puts down other girls or gently shoves the world away
i don't want to be a girl who
is afraid to be too loud and ashamed to take up space
my thoughts they are my own
and my life it's not a race
and my body is not a temple
but i pray it does stay safe
x2
i just wanna be a girl who
say what she thinks, doesn't hesitate to speak
i just wanna be a girl who
has a spine and uses it and is not described as meek
well maybe the meek will inherit the earth
but if im too weak to respond well then what is it worth
it shouldn't be so hard to put my feelings first
but i feel so right at home when i get hurt
x2
i just wanna be a girl who
is proud to be and happy she exists
i just wanna be a girl who
is so confident and doesn't write a song like this

Something/Anything

i wanted to be a writer
when i was a child
and now when i write
i only feel tired
he wanted to be
an astronaut
saw the space shuttle challenger disaster
and thought he'd better not
my brother still wants to be
a paleontologist
he still has his toy dinosaurs
and i hold onto this
i don't know how to be
anything
watching dvds
talking aimlessly
i don't know how to be
anything
i don't know how to be
anything
in your car
i hum along
quietly
i dont know how to be
anythjng
i don't know how to be
anything
my dad says i need to think
creatively
i don't know what took that out of me
i don't know how to be
anything
if i met a younger version of myself today
she'd be so confused
i'd beg her to act proud of me
but there would be no use

watching the floor and my untied boots
i will find my way to u
riding their bikes
i walk far behind them
riding their bikes
im on my razor scooter
tugging on ur shirt
ur yellow jacket
turning around
the face i saw wasnt yours
i will be wrong again
i will follow behind all my life
watching the floor and my untied boots
stumbling around where are u

tell a girl in a pizza shop
you think she is cute
but she has a boyfriend
oh well what can ya do
at least you can say you said something
that has to count for something
you'll say
i don't know
i guess i'll go
in your friends living room
you drink a whole bottle of wine
lying on a bathroom floor
i tell you everything's alright
you still say a lot of things
like "thank you, you're so nice"
half passed out, i'm by your side
you'll say
i don't know
but oh
please don't go
light a candle in your room
it's okay to cry
there's a whole lot more out there for you
i'm so happy you're alive
and if you're sad, you're feeling something
and that has to count for something
and i don't know
but
i won't go

Valentine's Day

we shouldnt be so sad
on valentines day
we should be somewhere else
far away
crying in the theatre
i'm such a waste of time
i left u in your seat there
the wall collided with my spine
tears were filling up my eyes
and i couldn't breathe
i didn't come back in time
you came looking for me
we shouldnt be so sad
on valentines day
we should be somewhere else
far away
i just want to feel important
but i guess sometimes im selfish
we didnt speak the whole way back to your house
you are in the dark
ive been there a while too
i will try to
shine some light on u
you are in the dark
ive been there a while too
ive been trying so hard
to let some light come through
we shouldnt be so sad
on valentines day
we should be somewhere else
far away
