Against Me
There's nothing beautiful about it
The way my body defies
The very thing that it was made for
How my mind and my muscles conspire
Against me
My whole self is against me
And I don't know how to win when I'm the enemy to fight
Hold it all in, shut it all out
No one's getting inside
And I didn't mean to build such strong boundaries
And leave my spirit deprived
But they're too strong to challenge, too high to climb
And now I'm completely confined
And would you hold it against me
If you knew how I battled against me
Would you hold it against me
If I told you
How the silent pain always hits the hardest
And the involuntary controls
Your mouth, your eyes, the shaming in naming
Eventually takes a toll
It's all working against me
It's always been working against me
Oh I am against me
And I don't know how to win when I'm the enemy to fight
And the only question left unanswered is: why?
The way my body defies
The very thing that it was made for
How my mind and my muscles conspire
Against me
My whole self is against me
And I don't know how to win when I'm the enemy to fight
Hold it all in, shut it all out
No one's getting inside
And I didn't mean to build such strong boundaries
And leave my spirit deprived
But they're too strong to challenge, too high to climb
And now I'm completely confined
And would you hold it against me
If you knew how I battled against me
Would you hold it against me
If I told you
How the silent pain always hits the hardest
And the involuntary controls
Your mouth, your eyes, the shaming in naming
Eventually takes a toll
It's all working against me
It's always been working against me
Oh I am against me
And I don't know how to win when I'm the enemy to fight
And the only question left unanswered is: why?
