Lyrics to Spinning Plates
Peel me back, on the inside I'm red
Miss a spot, and your insides will shred
I only grow when you give me the space
Water me, not a drop goes to waste
I'm twenty-eight, on borrowed time
Looking good for the end of my life
None will dare get beyond the skin
Worth protecting
What am I?
What am I? What am I? What am I? What am I?
To you?
What if I told you I am
Flawed only by design, ooh, ooh
I don't wanna love you back
'Cause when you see, I'm not all that
It'll hit you like whiplash
Spinning plates
I was always gonna break
No receipts to return, override it
Anticipate that this feeling's one-sided
When you see me how I see me
You won't like it
What am I? What am I? What am I? What am I?
To you?
What if I told you I am
Flawed only by design, ooh, ooh
I don't wanna love you back
'Cause when you see, I'm not all that
It'll hit you like whiplash
Miss a spot, and your insides will shred
I only grow when you give me the space
Water me, not a drop goes to waste
I'm twenty-eight, on borrowed time
Looking good for the end of my life
None will dare get beyond the skin
Worth protecting
What am I?
What am I? What am I? What am I? What am I?
To you?
What if I told you I am
Flawed only by design, ooh, ooh
I don't wanna love you back
'Cause when you see, I'm not all that
It'll hit you like whiplash
Spinning plates
I was always gonna break
No receipts to return, override it
Anticipate that this feeling's one-sided
When you see me how I see me
You won't like it
What am I? What am I? What am I? What am I?
To you?
What if I told you I am
Flawed only by design, ooh, ooh
I don't wanna love you back
'Cause when you see, I'm not all that
It'll hit you like whiplash
