You know I want to be the way you want me to
     Big hearted and tall enough to cover you
     I would break in half if you said it loud
     Splinter out of myself just like mercury
     I think it's better now than how it used to be
     You were lying in bed and I would levitate
     I think it's better here, than where we used to be
     I wish I could go out into the Oregon sun=85 to be alive in the day
     I would smile at everyone
     I remember you back in '83 you were dressing insane
     You were my everything you were so different from all those other girls
     A blind Electra in drag so cool and casually lame
     I think I'm better now than how I used to be
     Always nervous and weird, scared most of the time
     I think it's better now than how it used to be
     Always up in the night afraid to live in the day afraid of being afraid
     Now I sit alone when you're not around
     I read aloud just to hear a friendly voice
     I see you scary dolls they always look at me
     =46rom the corner of my eyes I see them shake their heads
     You know I want to be the way you me to
     Big hearted and tall enough to cover you
     I wish I could go out just to be alive in the day
