[Verse 1]
Pull the curtain
Out of the mirror light
Been counting numbers
Like they measure my life
Every little pinch
Feels like a punch inside
Pulling at my shirt
Just trying to hide
[Pre-Chorus]
But I’m so tired
Of hating every angle
Heart tangled
In every little line
[Chorus]
I’m more than a number on a glass scale
More than a whisper saying “you’ll fail”
I’ve been so cruel to my own skin
But this is the day that I begin
Step by step
I’m changing how I see me
Not just getting smaller
Getting free
I’m more than a number on a glass scale
I’m learning to love the one I weigh
[Verse 2]
Late night scrolling
Perfect bodies in a row
Keep comparing
Till I don’t want to show
Plate full of fear
Every bite feels wrong
Turn the volume down
On that poison song
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah
I’m so tired
Of living in a battle
Cold shadow
On everything I am
[Chorus]
I’m more than a number on a glass scale
More than a whisper saying “you’ll fail”
I’ve been so cruel to my own skin
But this is the day that I begin
Step by step
I’m changing how I see me
Not just getting smaller
Getting free
I’m more than a number on a glass scale
I’m learning to love the one I weigh
[Bridge]
I want strength in my arms
Light in my eyes
Peace in my heart
Not just smaller thighs (oh)
I want to move
Because it feels like flying
Not ’cause I’m scared
Of somebody’s eyes on me
[Chorus]
I’m more than a number on a glass scale
More than a whisper saying “you’ll fail”
I’ve been so cruel to my own skin
But this is the day that I begin
Step by step
I’m changing how I see me
Not just getting smaller
Getting free
I’m more than a number on a glass scale
I’m learning to love
The one I weigh
