I Hate My Body
I look in the mirror and I try not to cry
And no matter what I do... I just want to die
Stretch marks marble my skin up
My boobs were once barely a cup
I wipe away my tears
And run away from mirrors
I can't stand the way I look
I'd judge me if I were a book
I lay here thinking of how much
It unnerves me to get a gentle touch
I hate my body, the way it looks and feels
I wish I could stop the stretch mark with seals
I take pictures but I never show my waist
I bite my lips bloody so no one can have a taste
I lay in bed and stare at the ceiling
Is there a way to stop this feeling?
I wonder if I were dead I wouldn't care
About being beautiful and feeling the way people stare
I want to cut off my skin and throw it away
But since I can't from mirrors I run away
And no matter what I do... I just want to die
Stretch marks marble my skin up
My boobs were once barely a cup
I wipe away my tears
And run away from mirrors
I can't stand the way I look
I'd judge me if I were a book
I lay here thinking of how much
It unnerves me to get a gentle touch
I hate my body, the way it looks and feels
I wish I could stop the stretch mark with seals
I take pictures but I never show my waist
I bite my lips bloody so no one can have a taste
I lay in bed and stare at the ceiling
Is there a way to stop this feeling?
I wonder if I were dead I wouldn't care
About being beautiful and feeling the way people stare
I want to cut off my skin and throw it away
But since I can't from mirrors I run away
