Back when I was beautiful I never understood I was And I don't think I ever will Compare to just how beautiful I was A child and just a child And that alone could make me cry I hate to think I envy her Hate the way it's twisting me inside
Been peering through kaleidoscopes Watching everything I know Get infinitely complicated Multiplying cells like cancer I used to take up space Now I slink around this place The walls adorned with strangers Smiles spilling out the frames
Then I believеd in everything Everything Now I know bеtter Wish that I didn't
Back when I said what I want I never knew to laugh it off The first time that I let it soften That's the day the anger started Too young to tell I was No one else I could become On the beach with my twin brother Digging holes to India
Then I believed in everything Everything Now I know better Wish that I didn't
All that I want The first time is when The first time I screamed "Everything" The earliest Junes The first cold Decembers Guess no one remembers
Can I just count up all the things I love Pile them in a flatbed truck Take the joy in fistfuls Try to keep it simple
