Dainty
I'll phone you up as I cross the road
Close my eyes, you tell me when to go
I don't trust my body but I trust your voice
You could do better, glad to be your choice
And I am everything to you
Boys are made to make you blue
The playground tells you boys are always rude
You, you're new
You brush my hair and tell me "I love you"
(Can I be) dainty?
Can I be dainty?
Dainty
(I want) I want to be more than I am
I'm not enough, I know I can be
(You love) You love me more than you quite should (You should)
You make me feel so understood
And I am everything to you
Boys are made to make you blue
The playground tells you boys are always rude
You, you're new
You brush my hair and tell me "I love you"
(Can I be) dainty?
Can I be dainty?
Dainty
(I'll be) I'll be too loud until I'm mute
Place me in the corner out of view
You ask "What can I even do
To make you know you're too good to be true?"
How am I good enough?
How am I good enough?
How am I good enough for you?
(For you)
With my hands down my throat
I feel my fingers through my neck
I walked around town like this
Only he noticed
It will not be enough until my ankles don't hold me
I cling a little too tight, like my favourite dress
It never suited me anyway
So I made myself small for you
But you let me be big
You don't want me choking
On dreaming new year, new me
And I lowered my voice for you
With my hand back down my throat
But you pulled it back out again
I'll learn how to grow
Today I'll sit down by our tree
Between your knees
You love me for me
And I'm dainty again
And I'm happy, mmm, again
Close my eyes, you tell me when to go
I don't trust my body but I trust your voice
You could do better, glad to be your choice
And I am everything to you
Boys are made to make you blue
The playground tells you boys are always rude
You, you're new
You brush my hair and tell me "I love you"
(Can I be) dainty?
Can I be dainty?
Dainty
(I want) I want to be more than I am
I'm not enough, I know I can be
(You love) You love me more than you quite should (You should)
You make me feel so understood
And I am everything to you
Boys are made to make you blue
The playground tells you boys are always rude
You, you're new
You brush my hair and tell me "I love you"
(Can I be) dainty?
Can I be dainty?
Dainty
(I'll be) I'll be too loud until I'm mute
Place me in the corner out of view
You ask "What can I even do
To make you know you're too good to be true?"
How am I good enough?
How am I good enough?
How am I good enough for you?
(For you)
With my hands down my throat
I feel my fingers through my neck
I walked around town like this
Only he noticed
It will not be enough until my ankles don't hold me
I cling a little too tight, like my favourite dress
It never suited me anyway
So I made myself small for you
But you let me be big
You don't want me choking
On dreaming new year, new me
And I lowered my voice for you
With my hand back down my throat
But you pulled it back out again
I'll learn how to grow
Today I'll sit down by our tree
Between your knees
You love me for me
And I'm dainty again
And I'm happy, mmm, again
