Lyrics
My friends won’t understand me When I try and tell them why I won’t talk to her anymore Are they not good friends Even if I’m wrong and she’s all in the clear I could still use a bit of support over here Why can’t they take my side while I’m in my head Right now I’m not my best I’m sensitive I don’t have the thickest skin Words cut deeper than you’d think So I’m bracing myself from the wind I’m not good in the cold I need a jacket everywhere While you’re just fine with a T-shirt Living life in the open air But I can’t ‘cause I’m sensitive Oh no It shouldn’t matter what she said to me They should take my word if I don’t want to talk about it They could say it’s gonna be alright Is someone really a friend to me If all they’ve done is judge what I say and I do I guess I need new friends You gotta know I’m trying my best But I’m sensitive I don’t have the thickest skin Words cut deeper than you’d think So I’m bracing myself from the wind I’m not good in the cold I need a jacket everywhere While you’re just fine with a T-shirt Living life in the open air But I can’t ‘cause I’m sensitive Oh oh oh Oh oh oh Oh oh oh You know I’m sensitive I don’t have the thickest skin Words cut deeper than you’d think I’m bracing myself from the wind I’m not good in the cold I need a jacket everywhere You’re just fine with a T-shirt Living life in the open air Well I can’t ‘cause I’m sensitive I'm sensitive, I'm sensitive Well I can't 'cause I'm sensitive
