[Verse 1]
Em D
I am nothing without pretend
Am7
I know my thoughts
C
Can't live with them
Em D
I am nothing without a man
Am7
I know my faults
C
But I can't hide them
[Interlude]
Em D Am7 C
[Verse 2]
Em D
I still keep my baby teeth
Am7 C
In the bedside table with my jewelry
Em D
You still sleep in the bed with me,
Am7 C
My jewelry, and my baby teeth

[Verse 3]
I don't need another friend
When most of them
I can barely keep up with
I'm perfectly able to hold my own hand,
but I still can't kiss my own neck
[Interlude]
Em D Am7 C
[Verse 4]
I wanted to give you everything
but I still stand in awe of superficial things
I wanted to love you like my mother's mother's mothers did
