The bones of youth look good on you
But sweet as the taste
The apples of your cheeks
Will not define your face
I could not forget
You wanted something I never had
Now I'm just a flower cut
To stand in a jar
And hang my head til past my best
I'm so over
I could not regret
You wanted something I'll never have
Pretty thing
We lean together now
There's no way to get out
Once we're in
I'll show you all my teeth again
We'll be so thin, a lizard skin
With nothing inside
I'm sick of this, I see through it
They waste you
I could not forget
You wanted something I never had
I could not regret
You wanted something I'll never have
Pretty thing
We lean together now
There's no way to get out
Once we're in
I'll show you all my teeth again
I'll show you all my teeth again
I'll show you all my teeth again
I'll show you all my teeth again
