Staring up into the solar system,
all the stars are fixed up in the sky
I just want to sparkle for a moment
before I just fizzle out and die
I'm happy because I'm stupid,
scared of spiders, scared of flying
If I wasn't so happy
I wouldn't be so scared of dying
So just be gentle with me,
I'm not as young as I was
And I'll be gentle with you,
I'm not as brave as I thought
Cause my heart gets broken So easily
so just be gentle, be gentle with me
Wide awake waiting like a target,
listening for things I cannot see
Insects flutter up against my window,
I don't like the way they look at me
I guess I've always needed
to be needed by someone
It's a comforting feeling
being under someone's thumb
So just be gentle with me
and if I am ever mean
And I'll be gentle with you,
I never mean to be mean
Cause I want to pick peaches off of a cherry tree
Just be gentle, be gentle, be gentle, be gentle with me
So just be gentle with me,
trouble is sometimes
And I'll be gentle with you,
I just can't switch myself off
When I want to so I never do because
I'm mental, be gentle, be gentle
Just be gentle, be gentle, be gentle
And I'll be gentle, be gentle, be gentle,
be gentle with you
all the stars are fixed up in the sky
I just want to sparkle for a moment
before I just fizzle out and die
I'm happy because I'm stupid,
scared of spiders, scared of flying
If I wasn't so happy
I wouldn't be so scared of dying
So just be gentle with me,
I'm not as young as I was
And I'll be gentle with you,
I'm not as brave as I thought
Cause my heart gets broken So easily
so just be gentle, be gentle with me
Wide awake waiting like a target,
listening for things I cannot see
