I’m so high up

But I can feel gravity slowly pulling me

Back to where I once was

Back to where I once was

I have what every girl seems to want

Skinny, pretty, petite

They tell me they’re jealous

But it’s them I wish I could be

I can feel gravity slowly pulling me

Back to where I once was

Back to where I once was

I feel so stuck

Like some must feel who have feet but legs that can’t walk

I have a body I can’t show off

It rejects all the good things I crave

Including my own baby I wish I could have and hold one day

(I heard it’s a blessing)

I can feel gravity slowing pulling me

Back to where I once was

Back to where I once was

Days like this I wish I could cut

Myself apart, build a new body

These scars hold me together

I can feel gravity slowly pulling me

Back to where I once was

Back to where I once was

With a heart that’s breaking apart
