Mirror Like A Knife

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I step out slow And flinch at the glass One side says stay The other says pass I know every scar By the names I gave them I pull on my skin Like I can trade it [Pre-Chorus] Tell me who I am Before I look again 'Cause every glance I take Feels like a punch to the chest [Chorus] This body, this body Why won't it love me? This body, this body Keeps looking like a stranger I say I'm enough Then I break in the mirror This body, this body Why won't it love me? [Verse 2] At dinner I smile But I count every bite My friends see my face I see a fight I wear baggy clothes Like a kind of shield Still I hear that voice Saying nothing is real [Pre-Chorus] Tell me who I am When the room goes quiet 'Cause I can't outrun The shape of my mind [Chorus] This body, this body Why won't it love me? This body, this body Keeps looking like a stranger I say I'm enough Then I break in the mirror This body, this body Why won't it love me? [Bridge] If I could borrow your eyes For just one night Would you see the war I carry inside? I want to come home To my own skin But the cruelest thing Lives where I begin [Final Chorus] This body, this body Why won't it love me? This body, this body Keeps looking like a stranger I say I'm enough But I don't believe it This body, this body Why won't it love me? This body, this body Can you still hold me? This body, this body I need you to know me
