Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I can't believe I'm standing here again
All the guys I meet just lead to dead ends
And all the girls I've wanted never had a clue
And probably don't bat for my team, even if they knew
[Verse 2]
I've felt like a mountain, I have felt like a mouse
I've heard poison words fall out of my mouth
But I can swallow my pride and apologize
If you give me half a chance, I will try
But let me tell you
[Chorus]
I don't know how to be sweet
I don't know how to play a cool girl fantasy
And affection's two directions, not just a one-way street
I'm just not that sweet
'Cause my heart gets scared and sometimes shows its teeth
But if I'm yours, I will love you honestly
So who cares about being sweet?
[Verse 3]
Tried to be softer, more digestible
Diet versions of myself terrified of feeling full
I've squeezed these hips into someone else's jeans
And I have said "I'm sorry" when I didn't need to be
[Verse 4]
I curse when I'm angry. Shit, I curse when I'm not
I've come off too cold and I've come on too hot
So if we meet eyes from across some crowded room
I ain't ever gonna try to hide the truth
[Chorus]
I'm just not that sweet
I don't know how to play a cool girl fantasy
And affection's two directions, not just a one-way street
I'm just not that sweet
'Cause my heart gets scared and sometimes shows its teeth
But if I'm yours, I will love you honestly
So who cares about being sweet?
Who cares about being sweet?
[Verse 5]
I'm just not that sweet
My heart gets scared and sometimes shows its teeth
If I'm yours, I will love you honestly
If I'm yours, I'll give you all of me
So who cares about being sweet?
