lyrics

I'm shaking like I've been caged all night.
I'm shaking like I've been caged all night.
I'm shaking like I've been caged all night.
And you know it. You know it.
I'm shaking all the rats from my hide.
I'm shaking all the rats from my hide.
I'm shaking all the rats from my hide.
Gnaw into it, gnaw into it.
I'm quiet like The Knife in my side,
I'm quiet like The Knife in my side,
I'm crying down Riverside Drive,
I can't help it, I can't help it.

I know I never was beautiful enough for me,
I want to wear my skins down,
I want to chew my cheeks out.
And once you told me, you're always sorry, nose so ugly,
triangle-breasted canary,
puked/ high school in the sunshine morning.

I'm riding my bike,
I touch your spine,
give me a sign,
have I wasted all of my life?
Now it's time, I hear the fireworks whine overhead,
while your friend's phone goes dead,
this moment is mine, you look into my eyes,
into my head and I realize and sigh,
there is nothing I can do that will ever change the way that I am, or the things that I do,
or the way you see me, or the way you see you,
so fuck it,
I sing this song, it's where I belong.
I sing for fun, the shame is gone.
