No Muse

In need of your approval
 But a muse to you, I could never be
 Malleable for you so I could succeed
 I am partial to your love
 I cocoon myself until you let me be
 I would have hated myself; I wanted to believe
 But that's not me
 I could have studied you every night
 How I wanted to be her
 Red flags started flying high
 Now I want to be better
 I'm no use to you
 Unless I'm undressed
 I'm no muse to you
 You cut me in two
 Unless I say yes
 I'm no muse to you
 And you can sing about it all you want
 I must not want it bad enough
 Bad enough
 The grass is always greener
 But I've worked so hard to take care of mine
 If he only knew that I would bloom with time
 I can't be your blank canvas
 Colors painted on where you'd like to be
 Oh god, how I wanted to believe
 But that's not me
 I could have studied you every night
 How I wanted to be her
 Red flags started flying high
 Now I want to be better
 I'm no use to you
 Unless I'm undressed
 I'm no muse to you
 You cut me in two
 Unless I say yes
 I'm no muse to you
 And you can sing about it all you want
 I must not want it bad enough
 Bad enough, bad enough, bad enough, bad enough...
 I'm no use to you
 Unless I'm undressed
 I'm no muse to you
 You cut me in two
 Unless I say yes
 I'm no muse to you
 I'm no use to you
 Unless I'm undressed
 I'm no muse to you
 You cut me in two
 Unless I say yes
 I'm no muse to you
 And you can sing about it all you want
 I must not want it bad enough
 Bad enough
