Sidney Gish – What Do You Want From Me Tonight? lyrics

Well, I took someone's advice
With a roll of each eye, she told me to sit down twice
What do you want from me tonight?

Now I’m stuck losing my mind
While everyone else just thinks that I'm really shy
What do you want from me tonight?

'Cause I'm invited, but I'm terrifying too
And I'll sit here for a million years just staring across the room
But what do you want? 'Cause I want it all
And I'd really rather step back, but my back's against the wall

What if I'm too nice?
It’s a punch in the face to be so over polite
What do you want from me tonight?

And my voice is too high
And it matches my head and I look like I wanna die
What do you want from me tonight?

'Cause I'm invited, but I'm terrifying too
And I'll sit here for a million years just staring across the room
But what do you want? 'Cause I want it all
And I'd really rather step back, but my back's against the wall

And I'm born too tall to contort my spine into a ball
And I wanna disappear but I’m not adequately small
I'm invited but I'm terrifying too
And I'll sit here for a million years just staring across the room
But what do you want? 'Cause I want it all
And I'd really rather step back, but my back's against the wall
