Lyrics
I’ve come to show you every scar my soul achieved since birth To offer up my heart and all its contents to the earth So you can give it all a price tag and tell me what I’m worth But I’m just trying to make you love me I used to think I wrote my words to try and make a spark To light the way for others who were struggling in the dark But now I know I only write them in the hope they’ll leave a mark Yeah, I’m just trying to make you love me So tie me to a chair, I want to climb the walls I opened up the floodgates and I got waterfalls I took everything that I learned and I sung it out on tape For I used to be a child and now I’m just a different shape Yeah, I used to be a child and now I’m just a different shape Laying awake in bed last night it hit me in a flash The reason that I wear my pain like badges on a sash The reason that I wear it like a forehead cross of ash Is I’m trying to make you love me To every long lost friend I never meant to drift apart To every single in-crowd that I’ll never be a part To every enemy and every girl that broke my heart I was just trying to make you love me So tie me to a chair, I want to climb the walls I opened up the floodgates and I got waterfalls I took all of my broken heart and I sung it out on tape Because once I fell in love and I fell out a different shape Oh, every time I fell in love I fell out a different shape For every time I’ve ever felt myself under attack For everything I wish I was and all I’ll ever lack Especially for you folks who are talking at the back Can’t you see I’m dying to make you love me But I could use this microphone for stories not like this Where I’m not such a victim, you know I'd never take the risk For when the curtain falls, tomorrow calls and I’m just a narcissist Who’s still trying to make you love me So tie me to a chair, I want to climb the walls I opened up the floodgates and I got waterfalls I took everything that I had and I sung it out on tape Everybody else is ageing, I think that I’m just changing shape Oh, everybody else is growing, it feels like I’m just changing shape
