I wore a ring, a ring that had worn me
And oh, have I prayed my hands were still bare
I wore a smile, that did nothing for me
And oh, have I wondered
Why is it still there?

I wore a rope, to climb up the ladder
And oh, have I prayed it'd spare me a fall
I wore a smile, to make me feel better
And oh, have I wondered
Why wear it at all?

I think it's 'bout time you quit paying in flowers
I'm a grown woman now and I charge for my hours
I know we got messed up, but I ain't getting dressed up for you
We ain't children no more

I can't figure out what you're trying to forgive me
We can cry it out, baby, or you can simply just leave me
I know I'm a mess-up, but you got to quit playing dress-up
With a grown-up girl

I wore a heart, a heart nearly broken
And oh, have I prayed they'd leave it as is
And I wore my name, I shall not be spoken
For, I am not here - to love and to please.

To laugh and to be
To hurt with no pain
To smile with no joy
To cry with no sound.
What's in it for me?

I think it's 'bout time you quit paying in flowers
I'm a grown woman now and I charge for my hours
I know we got messed up, but I ain't getting dressed up for you
We ain't children no more
I can't figure out what you're trying to forgive me
We can cry it out, baby, or you can simply just leave me
I know I'm a mess-up, but you got to quit playing dress-up
With a grown-up girl

I wore a flag of unfitting colors
And oh, have I prayed they'd flatter me more

And yet we all wear it, we all bear with it - and we all wonder what for
And yet we all find it, some more - some less blinded, by what it was before
And then we all hide it, but at least we have tried - to wear it once more.
