My Own Skin
I just wanna feel comfortable in my own skin
In my mind, false visions conquer the world I'm in
Obsessed with feeling beautiful
Something my mind just won't fulfill
Mascara crawls down my face as I write this
Sitting here naked wishing I could stop it
Why do I let myself get like this?
I'm sorry I ever felt like this
I was built from scratch
Now I'm crumpled up
I've tried my best
Just to love myself
But I can't help but feel like this
Like pinkies crossed, I broke my promise
This floor of tears could sweep me away
And then maybe I would think I look okay
I've tried and tried
To make my eyes look a little less tired
And I'm terrified
Of losing all my sense of desire
Obsessed with being something great
If only I just lost a little more weight
Someday when they look at me
I'll be able to see whatever they see
Why do I let myself get like this?
I'm sorry I ever felt like this
I was built from scratch
Now I'm crumpled up
I've tried my best
Just to love myself
But I can't help but feel like this
Like pinkies crossed, I broke my promise
This floor of tears could sweep me away
And then maybe I would think I look okay
There's levels to life
And this one is mine
I try not to cry
But it's okay sometimes
I wake up to the morning light
It helps me know I'm still alive
So I think I'll just try
To love myself a little harder next time
I'm allowed to let myself be a mess
As long as its only temporary
I was built from scratch
And I'm beautiful
I'm doing my best
Just to love myself
I love that I can feel like this
My hearts alive it's just been broken
This floor of tears has filled in the space
And I know from now on
I will be okay
Someday when they look at me
I'll be able to see whatever they see
I just wanna feel comfortable in my own skin
In my mind, false visions conquer the world I'm in
Obsessed with feeling beautiful
Something my mind just won't fulfill
Mascara crawls down my face as I write this
Sitting here naked wishing I could stop it
Why do I let myself get like this?
I'm sorry I ever felt like this
I was built from scratch
Now I'm crumpled up
I've tried my best
Just to love myself
But I can't help but feel like this
Like pinkies crossed, I broke my promise
This floor of tears could sweep me away
And then maybe I would think I look okay
I've tried and tried
To make my eyes look a little less tired
And I'm terrified
Of losing all my sense of desire
Obsessed with being something great
If only I just lost a little more weight
Someday when they look at me
I'll be able to see whatever they see
Why do I let myself get like this?
I'm sorry I ever felt like this
I was built from scratch
Now I'm crumpled up
I've tried my best
Just to love myself
But I can't help but feel like this
Like pinkies crossed, I broke my promise
This floor of tears could sweep me away
And then maybe I would think I look okay
There's levels to life
And this one is mine
I try not to cry
But it's okay sometimes
I wake up to the morning light
It helps me know I'm still alive
So I think I'll just try
To love myself a little harder next time
I'm allowed to let myself be a mess
As long as its only temporary
I was built from scratch
And I'm beautiful
I'm doing my best
Just to love myself
I love that I can feel like this
My hearts alive it's just been broken
This floor of tears has filled in the space
And I know from now on
I will be okay
Someday when they look at me
I'll be able to see whatever they see
I just wanna feel comfortable in my own skin
