Verse 1
Silk and little ribbons in my hair
They call it wrong but darling I don't care
I paint my feelings brighter than the sun
A boy who shines too soft is still someone
Pre-Chorus
They measured me with rulers made of fear
But I was never built to fit in here
Chorus
I'm too much and not enough I'm told
Too girly for a boy too bold to fall
Let them whisper let the whole world stare
I bloom the loudest when they say don't dare
Hook
Oh-oh-oh oh-oh
Glitter and grace
Oh-oh-oh oh-oh
I take my place
Verse 2
My crown is made of things they can't explain
The gentle way I stitch my broken rain
Their narrow little boxes come undone
I am the gold that never needs the sun
Pre-Chorus
They handed me a script to read aloud
I tore the pages watch me wear the clouds
Chorus
I'm too much and not enough I'm told
Too girly for a boy too bold to fall
Let them whisper let the whole world stare
I bloom the loudest when they say don't dare
Hook
Oh-oh-oh oh-oh
Glitter and grace
Oh-oh-oh oh-oh
I take my place
Bridge
Softer doesn't mean that I am weak
My tender heart has taught my knees to speak
Pretty is a power I was made to hold
A story they will tell when I am old
Chorus
I'm too much and not enough I'm told
Too girly for a boy too bold to fall
Let them whisper let the whole world stare
I bloom the loudest when they say don't dare
Hook
Oh-oh-oh oh-oh
Glitter and grace
Oh-oh-oh oh-oh
I take my place
