lyrics

Soft-hearted boys with thin skins
see through, allowing me to take the time to dig in
I hardly ever miss them
I had them, so I had my fill
and reached the core that broke the deal

I'm so rotten, I'm so spoiled
I'm so smitten, I'm a child
I'm so hungry, but too picky
that I would like to forage for things that I should grow

Hard-hearted boys with spines and shells
tools required, they never opened up for my small hands
I miss them all the time
like I could be full if they could be ripe
they must taste like something right

Chorus

Soft-hearted girls that I'm afraid to touch
I couldn't bear to take a bite if I might cause pain
I don't know what I'm missing
but I can see they wait for me
growing from forbidden trees

Chorus

Would I take it back?
Everything I've sown?
Refund the sun what it gave to me to use
when what I save, I still lose?

I'm a hard-hearted girl, I'll never fill you up
but maybe I could just remind you how you'd like to feel
I cannot be your endgame
I consume so I can grow
I have my yes, but use my no

Chorus
