I open my legs, yearning for something that isn't there and I tell myself it's disgusting, my own body doesn't feel like home
What hangs from my chest feels like foreign objects that were sewn on forcefully
My mother mapped out my future already but I feel so lost
I refrain from touching myself and repeat it's disgusting
How does one even begin to love someone else when their own body looks unrecognizable in the mirror?

Everything was fine until you turned me into that rabid dog that lives inside your heart
Now my barking scares everyone away

The young boy cried but those tears belonged to an older man
His hands trembled and were as delicate as an old leaf still hanging onto a tree branch
When I touched him his body tensed, like a snake getting ready to strike
If it were possible, surely claws would have replaced his fingernails
As he walked his body was hunched over even though somewhere in him was a young boy full of life
I wonder that if I had met him earlier would he still be the same person he is now?

I used to think you were a sheep in wolves clothing
I dove in so deep for you but you pushed me away as you sunk deeper into your empty promises
You flipped me upside down but I can see clearer from here that you're not who I thought you were

I remember it clearly as if it just happened yesterday, you were always looking ahead and never looking back
I can still hear your voice, it was always so sweet and it made me sick

I am from the salt water and seaweed
the tide keeps pulling me back no matter how hard I try
My body is ****** and bruised but I keep dragging myself away
All I want is the warmth of another person's embrace
as the cold water reaches for me
An albatross tears into my skin as it's baleful eyes meet mine

We got along so well, laughing with each other and at each other
We changed but I also thought we’d stick together, side by side always
Now when I look back do I only realize how naïve I was
I wish I could be happy and blessed with ignorance once again someday

I watched for countless days as you circled above me, you’ve been carrying many wounds haven’t you?
When it became too much you ran to me for comfort
You taught me what it truly meant to be broken, as I touched you your petals turned brown

You were an easy fight
I know it's not fair or right
Your eyes were so cold even though it was a hot summer day, they still made me shiver
You clipped my wings when you knew I was crying on the inside
Yet I still said goodbye and broke free

My heart fluttered once our eyes met, my whole body felt light
How many other girls had he intoxicated with those eyes?
Our hands only brushed up against each other briefly yet I already craved more
