lyrics
I have nothing to say for myself
I wasted too many days on being unwell
I drain the water from the sink
And hope it all goes down as good as I think
Said you liked how I looked so skinny
I couldn't eat for months not for you or for me
I want to dress myself in your arms
I want to fit into the place that doesn't harm us
Maybe I'm just too
Fucked up to love you
Or anyone
Smaller I am the faster I run
Smaller I am the faster I run
Smaller I am the faster I run
Smaller I am the faster I run
Promise to get great soon
So that I don't cry and I don't miss you
I scrape the extra skin from my bones
and look the other way it's all I've known
Maybe I'm just too
Fucked up to love you
Or anyone
Smaller I am the faster I run
Smaller I am the faster I run
Smaller I am the faster I run
Smaller I am the faster I run
Smaller I am the faster I run
Smaller I am the faster I run
Smaller I am the faster I run
Smaller I am the faster I run
