1. guess i was sweet on you
since before i could tie my shoes since before i could feed myself before i learned to trust someone else grew up thinking it was okay that i could trust whatever you say didn't know what you were feeding me now i'm filling in the cavities cotton candy kind of love never ever filled me up we were spinning in your truth cotton candy kind of pain just a couple grains of sugar cane and a whole mess of blue 2. guess i just wanted more tired of living in your metaphor tired of caring bout what you think tired of hiding that i like pink woke up wishing it wasn't true watched the air fall out of you it took the air right out of me and i'm still licking you off my teeth cotton candy kind of love never ever filled me up we were spinning in your truth cotton candy kind of pain just a couple grains of sugar cane and a whole mess of blue guess i was sweet on you... cotton candy kind of love never ever filled me up we were spinning in your truth cotton candy kind of pain just a couple grains of sugar cane and a whole mess of blue 1. she eats her dinner hovered over the sink
bends down to the faucet when she wants a drink she don't sit at the table, pour herself some wine she don't love herself enough, she won't give herself the time she grew up faster than most kids now all the boys treat her like her daddy did as far as she's concerned she's just rotting on the vine she don't love herself enough, she won't give herself the time she don't love herself she won't give herself the time she don't need nobody else telling her she ain't worth a dime the only hand she's been dealt is the hurting kind the battle scars are hard inside her heart so she keeps drawing deeper battle lines 2. she makes her money taking off her clothes it ain't what she likes it's just what she knows she ain't smiled for real since '89 she don't love herself enough, she won't give herself the time she don't love herself she won't give herself the time she don't need nobody else telling her she ain't worth a dime the only hand she's been dealt is the hurting kind the battle scars are hard inside her heart so she keeps drawing deeper battle lines 3. no one's coming to save the day they would've come by now if it worked that way she's just flickering out like a neon sign she don't love herself enough, she won't give herself the time
