"Will You Want Me Now" lyrics

Standing in front of the home that never thought that I'd return
I grew up fighting so desperately for love I thought I could earn
A little bit sweeter, a little bit lighter, a little bit softer
Cruelty never came easily, all of it's learned

Highlighting every part of me I think that you would admire
Turning me into some sickening stranger you should desire
A little bit stronger, a little bit harder, a little bit colder
I once was a daughter a lifetime ago, now you've made me a soldier

Will you want me now?
Will you want me now?
'Cause it's one day here, the next day gone
Like the wind you can't bring yourself to stay for too long
Will you want me now?

Blamed for the words that you taught me to speak, somehow now I'm the bad guy
Sharpened my wit against everyone else just so I could survive
A little bit angry, a little bit sorry, a little bit lonely
Worthy enough til she walks in the room, and I'm left of the outside

Will you want me now?
Will you want me now?
'Cause it's one day here, the next day gone
Like the wind you can't bring yourself to stay for too long
Will you want me now?

A little bit sweeter, a little bit lighter, a little bit softer
A little bit smarter, a little bit faster, a little bit slower
A little bit wounded, a little bit hated, a little bit quicker
A little bit stronger, a little bit harder, a little bit colder
A little bit empty, a little bit lonely, a little bit angry
A little bit sorry, a little bit sorry, a little bit sorry
