Under my Bed*
[Verse 1]
I’m made up of broken parts that I don’t like to show
I’ve spent most of my adolescent life
Trying to smooth them out as I go
Imperfection wrap their arms around me like a lover
And when it seems I survive a storm I have to weather another

[Chorus]
Isn’t it funny how dreams come to life outside your head?
Because I wanted this
I fought for this
I was so sure
Now I want to hide under my bed
And things aren’t the movies
I was critical of fairy tales even then
But I wanted this
I fought for this
I was so sure
Now I want to hide under my bed

[Verse 2]
A change of scenery is always nice
But it doesn’t do the trick anymore
California is the resting place of the bitter, the loveless, and the scorned
And I know this is what I saw on advertisements on TV
Delicate dresses are disguise of a cold industry
[Chorus]
Isn’t it funny how dreams come to life outside your head?
Because I wanted this
I fought for this
I was so sure
Now I want to hide under my bed
And things aren’t the movies
I was critical of fairy tales even then
But I wanted this
I fought for this
I was so sure
Now I want to hide under my bed

[Bridge]
And please will you let me know
When it’s safe for me to come outside?
And please excuse the absence of emotion from my eyes

[Outro]
Cause isn’t it funny how dreams come alive outside of your head?
