i'm an anxious boy happiness eludes me
in my reach...poof! then it's gone
dust my shoulders shaking knees
scratch this itch that i can't reach
i wanna belong
i wanna be loved... jump up and kiss me

with my tongue planted firmly to the side of mouth
took some days to sort things out
they're dropping hints of uneasiness
filled with hostility and hatred

i wanna belong
i wanna be loved
jump up and kiss me
if you
if you
kiss me
if you could
if you
if you
kiss me
if you could

sand me down i'm feeling rough
turn me off... i've had enough
i'm a nervous guy pleasure escapes me
in my grasp...swoosh! then it's gone
twitching hands sack of bees
scratch this itch that i can't reach
i wanna belong
i wanna be loved
jump up and kiss me
if you
if you
kiss me
if you could
if you
if you kiss me

bit part actors one act town
press these buttons knock it down
i've lost your faith
i need your trust
far as i'm concerned your name is dust
