Your Congratulations [3:54]
Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie

	I wouldn't have compromised as much
	So much of myself for fear of
	Having you hating me

	I would've sung so loudly
	It would've cracked myself!
	And I became self-conscious
	Of anything exuberant

	I wouldn't have sold myself short
	I wouldn't have kept my eyes
	Glued to the ground
	If I had've known my invisibility
	Would not make a difference

	I would've run around screaming proudly
	At the top of my voice
	I wouldn't have said it was in fact luck
	I'm talking idealism here
	I would not have been so self deprecating
	I wouldn't have cowered
	For fear of having my eyes scratched out!

	I wouldn't have cut my comfort off
	I wouldn't have feigned needlessness
	I would not have discredited
	Every one of their compliments
	It was your approval I wanted
	Your congratulations
