im a cat born to a litter full of dogs
i asked her why and all she said was because
i said so

all i want is to be like the other ones
the boy that no one ever gives a second thought
about

i accidentally collided with the earth
the earth said "you're no asteroid" and you are not worth
anything

the opposite is true
when they think of it
the opposite is no where near the truth

one day i'll have scars, underneath my breasts
one day hopefully maybe i'll have a flat chest
let it be

i am covered with color all over my arms
they'll say that youre no painter, you just want to be worth
something

sunburned is my moon like skin and thin
is my will but im trying to begin
to heal

well, the opposite is true
when they think of it
the opposite is nowhere near the truth

nowhere near the truth
nowhere near
