Nicer

My boyfriend hates when I smile to the other guys
And like, who are they?
He doesn't really let me open my heart to anyone, so don't I?
I am a quiet talker, sensitive lover
But when he has no guts, I could shoot a better gun
When I'm in hunger, my body needs to be
You want to be
Better existant
Better shadows or a better listener
You will have to be much nicer to
Everyone you know but I can't, I can't
You want to be
Better existant
Better shadows or a better listener
You will have to be much nicer to
Everyone you know but I can't, I can't
You should be nicer, you should be nicer
You should be nicer, You should be nicer
My mama hates when I deny how
She was good to me in my childhood
I wasn't really, you hope, good to some guys
And I don't with my family
Am I a nice girl as a daughter, do you recognize her?
You might be seen with her
A disappointment invisible when you are sad
You want to be
Better existant
Better shadows or a better listener
You will have to be much nicer to
Everyone you know but I can't, I can't
I've always been my weakness
Myself, me is everything
I've always been my weakness
('Cause my love never had, never fed me on say)
You want to be
Better existant
Better shadows or a better listener
You will have to be much nicer to
Everyone you found but I can't, I can't
You want to be
You're allowed to be
