be something
They always said I would be nothing
'til they found out I was capable of giving something
And now they all come around
Baby girl, lay me down
I just wanna die slowly
They always said I would be nothing
That you're wasting all your time with these dreams of becoming
Something that you will never be
You'd hate it too if you were me
That's why you should just stay away
You ain't never met one like me, my soul's electrifying
See the hesitation in your eyes, girl we know you lying
Gon' head and give it up
I'm further from perfect than fucked up
Let's just stay as friends
Cause you won't say I love you again
Where did the time go
I have vivid memories of holding you
And now I'm all alone
Are you friend or foe?
You're now tuning in to safety inside your stereo
They always said I would be nothing
'til they found out I was capable of giving something
And now they all come around
Baby girl lay me down
I just wanna die slowly
They always said I would be nothing
That you're wasting all your time with these dreams of becoming
Something that you will never be
You'd hate it too if you were me
That's why you should just stay away
I can't figure out why you think that you can save me
I'm a demon in disguise as an angel
That's why your soul feels like it's safe around me
I can fake the safety
In another life, I'd be perfect but in this one, there's no maybe
Let me hear you call me baby
It's okay to let me go, I won't hold it against you
Now my vision's getting hazy
I can only blame me
Maybe I'll feel better when the only thing I'm doing's pushing daisies
They always said I would be nothing
'til they found out I was capable of giving something
And now they all come around
Baby girl lay me down
I just wanna die slowly
They always said I would be nothing
That you're wasting all your time with these dreams of becoming
Something that you will never be
You'd hate it too if you were me
That's why you should just stay away
'til they found out I was capable of giving something
And now they all come around
Baby girl, lay me down
I just wanna die slowly
They always said I would be nothing
That you're wasting all your time with these dreams of becoming
Something that you will never be
You'd hate it too if you were me
That's why you should just stay away
You ain't never met one like me, my soul's electrifying
See the hesitation in your eyes, girl we know you lying
Gon' head and give it up
I'm further from perfect than fucked up
Let's just stay as friends
Cause you won't say I love you again
Where did the time go
I have vivid memories of holding you
And now I'm all alone
Are you friend or foe?
You're now tuning in to safety inside your stereo
They always said I would be nothing
'til they found out I was capable of giving something
And now they all come around
Baby girl lay me down
I just wanna die slowly
They always said I would be nothing
That you're wasting all your time with these dreams of becoming
Something that you will never be
You'd hate it too if you were me
That's why you should just stay away
I can't figure out why you think that you can save me
I'm a demon in disguise as an angel
That's why your soul feels like it's safe around me

And now they all come around
Baby girl lay me down
I just wanna die slowly
They always said I would be nothing
That you're wasting all your time with these dreams of becoming
Something that you will never be
You'd hate it too if you were me
That's why you should just stay away
