i'm playing the role
of the girl who doesn't care
you could pluck my heart out of my chest
and i would laugh and say
"you're such an idiot"
i would hit your chest playfully
and kiss your lips
i'm the cool girl
i'm the girl you could break
a million times
over and over again
and i would thank you
because at least then
you're touching me
