Nervous and Weird (Live)

You know I want to be the way you want me to

Big hearted and tall enough to cover you

Yeah, I'd break in half if you said it loud

Splinter out of myself just like mercury

Yeah, I want to be the way you want me to

Big hearted and tall enough to cover you

Yeah, I'd break in half if you said it out loud

Splinter out of myself just like mercury

I think it's better now than how it used to be

You were lying in bed and I would levitate

I think it's better here than where we used to be

I wish I could go out into the Oregon sun: to be alive in the day

I'd smile at everyone

I remember you back in '83

You were crazy insane, you were my everything

You were so different from all those other girls

A blind Electra in drag, so cool and casually lame

I think I'm better now than how I used to be

Always nervous and weird, scared most of the time

I think it's better now than how it used to be

Always up in the night, afraid to live in the day

Afraid of being afraid

Afraid to live in the day

Afraid to live in the day

Yeah, I sit alone when you're not around

Yeah, I read aloud just to hear a friendly noise

I see you scary dolls when they look at me

From the corner of my eye I see them shake their heads

You know I want to be the way you me to

Big hearted and tall enough to cover you

Yeah, I want to be the way you want me to

I wish I could go out and be alive in the day

Be alive in the day

Be alive in the day

Be alive in the day
