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, that's right
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, like an onion girl
Don't try to save me, just stay away
'Cause I might make you cry, yeah
Like an onion girl, like an onion girl, oh
Yeah yeah"

She said, "I'm naked, shameless
And I'm 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"

She said, "I'm naked and I'm 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"

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
