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 and 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 and 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 and 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
