They told me: “Be sweet”
They told me: “Be nice”
They told me: “Be beautiful,
You’ve beautiful eyes.”
They told me this
They told me twice
But what if I do it all
Will it suffice?
Coz I, I don’t wanna run out of time
And I, I only want things to be fine.
They say I’m too emotional
They’re wanting me to shed my skin
I think they’re being delusional
Deep within.
They’re making me feel dangerous
I must have got under their skin
So keep up being treacherous
Deep within.
I gotta be tough
I gotta be cool
Don’t care what they say
I follow no rule.
I’ve been a good girl
So what if I stop?
I think it’s time to stir
Everything up.
Coz I, I’m not scared of crossing the line
But I, I always want things to be fine.
They say I’m too emotional
They’re wanting me to shed my skin
I think they’re being delusional
Deep within.
They’re making me feel dangerous
I must have got under their skin
So keep up being treacherous
Deep within.
See, see
Through me, me
Breathe in deep
And be.
Bleed, bleed
Each seed, seed
Let it grow roots
And breed.
They say I’m too emotional
They’re wanting me to shed my skin
I think they’re being delusional
Deep within.
They’re making me feel dangerous
I must have got under their skin
So keep up being treacherous
Deep within.
