I / Me / Myself

I've been feeling lightheaded since I lost enough weight to fit back in my skin

Flower petals and feathers tether me to the ground (pound for pound)

Take my tea with formaldehyde for my feminine side since the day that I died

While I whittle my bones until I'm brittle, am I pretty now?

For some reason I find myself lost in what you think of me

And too confused to choose who I should be


And now you got me thinking

I wish I could be a girl and that way you'd wish I could be your girlfriend, boyfriend

Am I pretty enough to lie to? Oh-aw, oh

I wish I could be a girl and that way you'd wish I could be your girlfriend, boyfriend

Just a little old me in a big, big world, oh-aw, oh

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, little old me in a big world

Ah-ah-ah-ah, I wish I were a girl


I've been feeling lighthearted since I gained enough weight back to c-c-c-c-cover my bones

I get dressed up in shadows one leg at a time (we're so alike)

But if the shoe fits then I won't try it on 

You'll be walking out early but the show must go on

No, I know that I'm wrong but I love how you're on my side when I cross that line

It's been a point of contention between myself and this body that they stuck me in

The privilege of being born to be a man


And now you got me thinking

I wish I could be a girl and that way you'd wish I could be your girlfriend, boyfriend

Am I pretty enough to lie to? Oh-aw, oh

I wish I could be a girl and that way you'd wish I could be your girlfriend, boyfriend

Just a little old me in a big, big world, oh-aw, oh

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, little old me in a big world

Ah-ah-ah-ah, I wish


Eating your prosthetic, meet your anesthetic criteria pathetic seeing you become acetic

Say my name like a slur, but I've been called worse

And I've heard it all before, no, this isn't a first

Let me be the void you fill with taxidermy fingerprints, taxonomize out differences

I am quantum physics, my witness brings me to existence


I wish I could be a girl and that way you'd wish I could be your girlfriend, boyfriend

Am I pretty enough to love back? No, not yet

I wish I could be a girl and really, I'd prefer it if you would use I/Me/Myself

Am I pretty enough, am I pretty enough to fucking die?

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, little old me in a big world

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, well I would give you my whole world

Oh-woah-woah-woah, woah

Little old me in a big world 

Ah-ah-ah-ah, I wish
