The Skin i Live In
Please look away,
Don't pay me no mind
I done always lived with shame
I'm straight, i'm alright
Always ready for the rain
The rays
They don't shine i just want to hide my face
I pray you don't mind
To
Hold on
I don't want to be right
I don't think that i'm wrong though
Once identified
I can't never hit undo
Fearful for my pride
Scared i ain't what you like
Spare me and let me die
Wave goodbye at the front door
All i do is take my L's
Pay my bills while i hate myself
Hate my thoughts and i hate my shell
Now growing used to the pain i feel
All i do is take my L's
Pay my bills while i hate myself
Hate my thoughts and i hate my shell
Now growing used to the pain i feel
Please don't touch me
Please don't tease me
You don't want me
You don't need me
I feel ugly
I feel teeny
I keep stumbling
I feel sleepy
Please don't take my clothes off
I'm weary
Please don't turn the lights on
They scare me
I couldn't love myself in theory
Let alone in practice
Look at me
I'm captain dreary
Aye
The boy in the mirror?
Naw, that ain't me
I mean it can't be
Naw, it can't be
Please don't patronize me
Cause frankly
Imma be good
I ain't angry
Or maybe i am
Angry as fuck with this frame
I command this body was given to me by mistake
That must be it
But replace it i can't, so
Please look away
Don't pay me no mind
I done always lived with shame
I'm straight, i'm alright
Always ready for the rain
The rays
They don't shine i just want to hide my face
Please look away
Don't pay me no mind
I done always lived with shame
I'm straight, i'm alright
Always ready for the rain
The rays
They don't shine i just want to hide my face
I pray you don't mind
To
Hold on
I don't want to be right
But i don't think that i'm wrong though
See, all i have surmised
Through experiences i've gone through reaffirms what we like
Indicates what we hide
So platitudes are malign
Impassive and fucking cruel
All i do is take my L's
Pay my bills while i hate myself
Hate my thoughts and i hate my shell
Now growing used to the pain i feel
All i do is take my L's
Pay my bills while i hate myself
Saying the same shit
Won't break this spell
All i feel is shame, pain and guilt
I don't know
Only blues and grays in my kaleidoscope fight or flight, or both
I will die alone, but on a lighter note
My MO
Is to undermine my own
And i think i now know why
This body ain't mine at all
I don't know
Only blues and grays in my kaleidoscope fight or flight, or both
I will die alone, but on a lighter note
My MO
Is to undermine my own
And i think i now know why
This body ain't mine at all
So, please look away
Don't pay me no mind
I done always lived with shame
I'm straight, i'm alright
Always ready for the rain
The rays
They don't shine i just want to hide my face
Hide my face, hide my face
So, please look away, don't pay me no mind
I done always lived with shame
I'm straight, i'm alright
Always ready for the rain
The rays
They don't shine i just want to hide my face
I pray you don't mind
To
Hold on
Don't pay me no mind
I done always lived with shame
I'm straight, i'm alright
Always ready for the rain
The rays
They don't shine i just want to hide my face
