Onion Girl

Lyrics

I'm a bit unstable, she said
 With a Cheshire grin
 So many cracks in my sidewalk, boy
 Don't you fall in.
 Feels like the things that I've wanted
 The most in this life
 I can't have
 So you see I've been damning the world
 Before it damns me
 She said I'm naked and shameless
 And I'm peeling back the layers
 Like an onion girl
 Don't try to save me
 Just stay away
 'Cause I might make you cry
 Like an onion girl
 Like an onion girl
 Second grade playground
 I still haven't the nerve
 Fear is under my skin
 Like St. Anthony's fire
 And I can't stand the burn
 Yeah
 So let's break a little bread, have a little laugh
 I haven't laughed for a while
 'Cause it's a long road back, yes
 From the womb tonight
 I'm naked, shameless
 And peeling back the layers
 Like an onion girl
 Don't try to save me
 Just stay away
 'Cause I might make you cry, yes
 Like an onion girl
 Like an onion girl
 She said I'm naked, shameless
 And I'm peeling back the layers
 Like an onion girl
 Don't try to save me
 Just stay away
 'Cause I might make you cry
 Like an onion girl
 She said I'm naked and shameless
 And peeling back the layers
 Like, like an onion girl
 Don't try to save me
 Just stay away
 'Cause I might make you cry
 Like an onion girl
 Like an onion girl, yeah
 Like an onion girl
