"Get To Know Me" lyrics

"Get To Know Me"

Everybody's got their shit, no one here is exempt
I read somewhere, familiarity breeds contempt
No, I'm not scared to show that side, but I'm afraid you'll run and hide
If we really get down to it

Have you met when I'm belligerent?
I might make you cry
Have I introduced insecurity yet?
Wish I could tell you why
Have you noticed me careless?
Birthmarks when I'm undressed
You'll meet low and you'll see lonely
If you ever hold me closely
How well, how well do you wanna get to know me?
Do you wanna get to know me?

Sometimes I find a pillow and I empty out my lungs
I keep my room dark enough to obscure skeletons
No, I'm not scared to show my bones but once you know me
Then you'll know all the faces of my weakness
All the smiles on my secrets

Did you get to my anxiety?
I can't play it cool
Did you get to my negativity yet?
When my glass is never half full
Have you noticed me jealous?
My eyes when I'm rebellious
You'll meet, go ahead, ignore me
Yeah, if you ever hold me closely
How well, how well do you wanna get to know me?
Do you wanna get to know me? Yeah

There's a world living inside my head
Do you wanna slow it down?
And when you get a real good look at it
Are you gonna stick around?
How well? How well?
How well do you wanna get to know me?
Do you wanna get to know me?
Do you wanna get to know me?
Do you wanna get to know me?
Do you wanna get to know me?
Do you wanna get to know me?
