I couldn't go
I couldn't stay
I couldn't...
I couldn't...
They tried to push me down
But I just wiggled around until they couldn't hold me
Years and years
They couldn't find me
If you turn the light on, I'll just run away
I know I don't belong but I have nowhere else to stay
I'm so sorry I'm here
I'm so sorry I'm here
Please don't kill me
Please don't kill me
I'm so sorry I'm here
Right into the heart of my dreams
Someone else is just trying to crush me
But it's okay
It's okay
If I was you
If I was a killer, I'd just kill me too
I keep myself together somehow
(I don't want anything, I just want to survive)
Stepped on too many times to count
(I know I'm nothing to you, I know I'm not even alive)
I hope one day my broken frame
(I'm so sorry that I scare you, I'll find a better place to hide)
Can get away, can find a place
(I'll crawl into the corner, stay out of the light)
That's safe
Is it really like you say?
Does it really come in waves?
Does it really work that way?
I know you're something different
You can't hide it
You can't miss it
I keep myself together somehow
(I don't want anything, I just want to survive)
Stepped on too many times to count
(I know I'm nothing to you, I know I'm not even alive)
I hope one day my broken frame
(I'm so sorry that I scare you, I'll find a better place to hide)
Can get away, can find a place
(I'll crawl into the corner, stay out of the light)
That's safe
I couldn't go
I couldn't stay
I couldn't go
I couldn't stay
I couldn't stay
I didn't stay
