I look at myself and all I see is grey I try so hard to pray it away I know it's cliche But I can't stand my own face It's sad eyes They see through my lies My oversized thighs My failure to revise I despite this disguise I look at myself and all I see is disappointment Try harder I mumbled in exhaustion What a collision My own derision One day, soon, I will look at myself and all I will see is joy My reflection, I will enjoy not want to destroy I will not be coy As the sun dawns All will be gone I vowed I look at myself today and all I see is hope For I am proud I want to scream it loud in crowd I am proud of me and you And with that statement I feel so new.

Disappointment
I look at myself and all I see is grey I try so hard to pray it away I know it's cliche But I can't stand my own face It's sad eyes They see through my lies My oversized thighs My failure to revise I despite this disguise I look at myself and all I see is disappointment Try harder I mumbled in exhaustion What a collision My own derision One day, soon, I will look at myself and all I will see is joy My reflection, I will enjoy not want to destroy I will not be coy As the sun dawns All will be gone I vowed I look at myself today and all I see is hope For I am proud I want to scream it loud in crowd I am proud of me and you And with that statement I feel so new.
