Skin
Looking in the mirror gets hard
When you can't recognize
The person looking back
Did my face get rounder?
My eyes, a bit wider?
And have I always looked so sad?
I disappoint myself again and again
When I keep promising I'll change
And I guess that I have
But not in the improving way
I slowly start to reject my own skin
You look so comfortable in the body you're in
How do you make it look so easy
To love yourself so freely?
I go back in forth, status changing each day
My mirror dictates if i'm hiding away today
There's nothing worse than being self aware
When you know that you are
Tearing yourself down
Did my skin get paler?
My hair, a bit longer?
And have I always had this permanent frown?
I slowly start to reject my own skin
You look so comfortable in the body you're in
How do you make it look so easy
To love yourself so freely?
I go back in forth, status changing each day
My mirror dictates if i'm hiding away today
I don't know how you do it
And don't treat your body like shit
Self sabotage is my own best friend
Now I just don't know who I am
They say your body is a temple
I treat mine like a public high school bathroom
Hateful words paint the walls of my brain
Filled to the brim with teenage doom
I'm much happier than a year ago, or two
So what happened, why do I still feel the way I do?
I slowly start to reject my own skin
You look so comfortable in the body you're in
How do you make it look so easy
To love yourself so freely?
I go back in forth, status changing each day
My mirror dictates if I'm hiding away today
I don't know how you do it
And don't treat your body like shit
Self sabotage is my own best friend
Now I just don't know who I am
When you can't recognize
The person looking back
Did my face get rounder?
My eyes, a bit wider?
And have I always looked so sad?
I disappoint myself again and again
When I keep promising I'll change
And I guess that I have
But not in the improving way
I slowly start to reject my own skin
You look so comfortable in the body you're in
How do you make it look so easy
To love yourself so freely?
I go back in forth, status changing each day
My mirror dictates if i'm hiding away today
There's nothing worse than being self aware
When you know that you are
Tearing yourself down
Did my skin get paler?
My hair, a bit longer?
And have I always had this permanent frown?
I slowly start to reject my own skin
You look so comfortable in the body you're in
How do you make it look so easy
To love yourself so freely?
I go back in forth, status changing each day
My mirror dictates if i'm hiding away today
I don't know how you do it
And don't treat your body like shit
Self sabotage is my own best friend
Now I just don't know who I am
They say your body is a temple
I treat mine like a public high school bathroom
Hateful words paint the walls of my brain
Filled to the brim with teenage doom
I'm much happier than a year ago, or two
So what happened, why do I still feel the way I do?
I slowly start to reject my own skin
You look so comfortable in the body you're in
How do you make it look so easy
To love yourself so freely?
I go back in forth, status changing each day
My mirror dictates if I'm hiding away today
I don't know how you do it
And don't treat your body like shit
Self sabotage is my own best friend
Now I just don't know who I am
