Sarah Bailey - My Own Skin lyrics

Verse 1: I just wanna feel comfortable in my own skin In my mind false visions conquer the world I’m in Obsessed with feeling beautiful Something my mind just won't fulfill Mascara crawls down my face as I write this Sitting here naked wishing I could stop it Chorus: Why do I let myself get like this I’m sorry I ever felt like this I was built from scratch Now I'm crumpled up I’ve tried my best Just to love myself But I can’t help but feel like this Like pinkies crossed, I broke my promise This floor of tears could sweep me away And then maybe I would think I look okay Verse 2: I’ve tried and tried To make my eyes look a little less tired And I’m terrified Of losing all my sense of desire Obsessed with being something great If only I just lost a little more weight Someday when they look at me I’ll be able to also see whatever they see Chorus Bridge: There’s levels to life And this one is mine I try not to cry But it’s okay sometimes I wake up to the morning light It helps me know I’m still alive So I think I’ll just try To love myself a little harder next time Chorus: I’m allowed to let myself be a mess As long as its only temporary I was built from scratch And I’m beautiful I’m doing my best Just to love myself I love that I can feel like this My hearts alive it’s just been broken Now this floor of tears has filled in the space And I know from now on I will be okay Outro: I just wanna feel comfortable in my own skin
