Oh these little rejections
How they add up quickly
One small sideways look
And I feel so ungood
Somewhere along the way I think
I gave you the power to make
Me feel the way I thought
Only my father couldOh these little rejections
How they seem so real to me
One forgotten birthday
I'm all but cooked
How these little abandonments
Seem to sting so easily
I'm 13 again
Am I 13 for good?
I can feel so unsexy for someone so beautiful
So unloved for someone so fine
I can feel so boring for someone so interesting
So ignorant for someone of sound mindOh these little protections
How they fail to serve me
One forgotten phone call
And I'm deflated
Oh these little defenses
How they fail to comfort me
Your hand pulling away
And I'm devastatedI can feel so unsexy for someone so beautiful
So unloved and for someone so fine
I can feel so boring for someone so interesting
So ignorant for someone of sound mind
When will I stop leaving baby?
When will I stop deserting baby?
When will I start staying with myself?Oh these little projections
How they keep springing from me
I jump my ship as I take it personally
Oh these little rejections
How they disappear quickly
The moment I decide not to abandon meI can feel so unsexy for someone so beautiful
So unloved and for someone so fine
I can feel so boring for someone so interesting
So ignorant for someone of sound mindI can feel so unsexy for someone so beautiful
So unloved and for someone so fine
I can feel so boring for someone so interesting
So ignorant for someone of sound mind
