I've never been very comfortable
In what I would call this skin
I've always had the propensity
To want to climb back in and start again

I've been in the rain and tried to shrink
I've used up my safety pins
I've covered myself in plastic wrap
With the help of a few good friends
A tumble in the dryer didn't seem to make amends
And so I still don't fit into this skin

I crawled underneath so that I could see
The deepest part of me that's where I've been
All I could find was an exit sign
Telling me I'd lost my mind

I've been in the rain and tried to shrink
I've used up my safety pins
I've covered myself in plastic wrap
With the help of a few good friends
A tumble in the dryer didn't seem to make amends
And so I still don't fit into this skin

I held my breath till I turned blue
I even dropped a size or two
Like some girls they will never do
I thought I'd follow through
I even got a make up crew
To be the girl the stencil drew
But now I realize that yes it's true
The problem is…
