Skinny

It starts with the morning light Ends with my prayers at night Flashing numbers, loose laces Moments of my life in paces Around town when no one else is around I wanna be skinny, let my bones show Let the world grow while I am shrinking I wanna be beautiful, I'm constantly in fear And crying midnight tears 'bout what you're thinking Oh god, give me self-control God, give me one more mile God, give me some small space to fit for a while It follows me around like a ghost Oh, I'm the one it loves the most Elеvator mirror, tight clothes Stealing all my thunder whеn I try to boast It's got its hooks in my brain like a radio song Over and over until I'm forced to sing along You're a smart pretty catch, quite a winner If you were just a few pounds thinner Oh, oh I wanna be skinny, let my bones show Let the world grow while I am shrinking I wanna be beautiful, I'm constantly in fear And crying midnight tears 'bout what you're thinking Oh god, give me self-control God, give me one more mile God, give me some small space to fit for a while It's got its hooks in my brain like a radio song Over and over until I'm forced to sing along Over and over, I've got a nervous tick Pushing and pulling until I'm shaky and sick Pushing and pulling, is it my friend or my foe It's got its hooks in my brain and it won't let go It's got its hooks in my brain like a radio song Over and over until I'm forced to sing along Over and over until I'm forced to sing along I wanna be skinny, let my bones show Let the world grow while I am shrinking I wanna be beautiful, I'm constantly in fear And crying midnight tears 'bout what you're thinking Oh god, give me self-control God, give me one more mile God, give me some small space to fit for a while
