[Verse 1]
Pulled the covers
Past my face
Clock keeps talking
I stay in place
Empty stomach
Heavy head
I skip breakfast
Eat my shame instead
[Chorus]
I hate this body that I’m living in
I hate the way I talk about my skin
I wanna disappear
But I’m still here
Crying at the kitchen door
I hate this body that I’m living in
I eat the pain and then I hate again
I can’t stand the glass
So I just pass
Leave the mirror on the floor
[Verse 2]
Doctor’s letters
On my phone
“Take it easy”
Feels like stone
They say “you’re pretty
You’ll be fine”
Pretty’s just a cage
With a painted sign
[Chorus]
I hate this body that I’m living in
I hate the way I talk about my skin
I wanna disappear
But I’m still here
Crying at the kitchen door
I hate this body that I’m living in
I eat the pain and then I hate again
I can’t stand the glass
So I just pass
Leave the mirror on the floor
[Bridge]
Sometimes I wish
I could be kind
Call a truce
With this tired mind
One small breath
One soft word
To this hurting heart
That no one’s heard
[Chorus]
I hate this body that I’m living in
I hate the stories written in my skin
I wanna disappear
But I’m still here
Crying at the kitchen door
I hate this body that I’m living in
But maybe one day I could let me in
Pick up every shard
Forgive the scars
And the mirror on the floor
