Skin [Jun. 11th, 2004|02:19 pm]
Check myself out in the mirror

A blemish here, a scar over there

They don't know how I pick at myself

They don't know how how I hate myself

They all stop to stare

At the beautiful peace of flesh I am

When inside it tears me up

I have to be perfect

I have to be perfect for you

Or else I'm nothing

I don't wear makeup

Because I don't know how

I don't do my hair

Because I never learned

But still; I have to be perfect

I stopped working out

I wanted to see if you'd notice

You did; I have to be perfect

I stopped shaping my eyebrows

I wanted to see if you'd notice

You did; I have to be perfect

Is it easy for you

You're not perfect

What's it like to know me

Is it a thrill to be seen with me

Do you get off on knowing me

If one hair's out of place you're embarrassed of me

I wish I could cut off my skin

Place it in a jar for you

Then maybe, just maybe

You'd see that's all I am to you
