Awkwardly funny mess

Lyrics

(I think I'm doing it again.) We're at a dinner and I'm talking fast Telling a joke that I thought was funny at last But then I look around and the smiles all fade And I'm standing right in the mess I made. They're all looking with that polite little stare Wishing I wasn't the one sitting there. I laugh too hard and I talk too much Spilling my heart like it's burning to touch. And I'm always too loud for the room! A firework popping in the middle of June! I'm spilling over, I'm making a scene! Living my life like a screaming queen! Yeah, they want me to whisper, they want me to wait! But I'm built for the noise and I'm built to create! So what if I shout till my lungs give away! I've got too much to say! You told me once that I should tone it down Act like a lady when we're out in town Keep all my feelings inside of a box And double-check that it's perfectly locked. Well, I tried your quiet and I tried your calm It felt like a ticking, emotional bomb. I'd rather be messy, I'd rather be loud Than fading away to fit in with the crowd. And I'm always too loud for the room! A firework popping in the middle of June! I'm spilling over, I'm making a scene! Living my life like a screaming queen! Yeah, they want me to whisper, they want me to wait! But I'm built for the noise and I'm built to create! So what if I shout till my lungs give away! I've got too much to say! Maybe I'm broken or maybe I'm free Maybe there's nothing wrong with me. I'm just a heart that is too big to hide A beautiful riot trapped on the inside. (So let them stare, let them judge, let them say...) (I was never meant to play it safe.) And I'm always too loud for the room! A firework popping in the middle of June! I'm spilling over, I'm making a scene! Living my life like a screaming queen! Yeah, they want me to whisper, they want me to wait! But I'm built for the noise and I'm built to create! So what if I shout till my lungs give away! I've got too much to say! Yeah, I've got too much to say! (Too loud.) (Get used to it.)
