[Verse 1]
Here's a tale: When I was six
And militantly innocent
They didn't think I'd handle it too well
Turns out they were on the nose
About a toddler's mortal woes
'Cause all we do is decompose and smell
[Chorus]
Please give me time
Nervous
Still kinda nervous
Still kinda nervous
Still kinda scared to die
Nervous
Still kinda nervous
Still kinda nervous
Still kinda clingin' to days gone by
[Verse 2]
Must've cried a waterpark
And that's just stabbin' in the dark
They gave up and they dropped me off at home
It's then I knew that on the Earth
We're disconnected after birth
And handled my mortality alone
[Chorus]
Please give me space
My sensibilities have been replaced
With guilt and lack of grace
I need more time
My conscience is uniquely unaligned
I am the bottom line
[Outro]
What's the worst that could happen
Playin' thirty odd years pretend?
I don't wanna be angry
I just wanna feel open again
I don't wanna be angry
I just wanna feel open again
I don't wanna be angry
But I'll never feel open again
