[Verse 1]

I just want to wear

Little shorts in the deep end

Splashing 'round with my friends

You lose weight to make a new frame

And if I stretch my arms up

High enough, I'm flat chested

They were so close when they made me


[Pre-Chorus]

They were so close

When they made me

They were so close

But they fell at the final hurdle

They were so close

But thеy fell at the final hurdle

Thеy were so close


[Chorus]

Now there's a stranger staring back at me

I thought I'd be someone who looks differently

There's a stranger staring back at me

I thought I'd be someone who looks differently


[Verse 2]

Straighten out the curves

I'm accustomed to harshness

Shut out from the world

Can't ignore what’s right in front of me

And what a waste of time

Is looking cute worth the surgery?

They were so close when they made me


[Pre-Chorus]

They were so close

When they made me

But they fell at the final hurdle

Self-awareness makes me crumble

They were so close

When they made me

But they fell at the final hurdle


[Chorus]

Now there's a stranger staring back at me

I thought I'd be someone who looks differently

There's a stranger staring back at me

I thought I'd be someone who looks differently

'Cause there's a stranger staring back at me

I thought I'd be someone who looks differently

There's a stranger staring back at me

I thought I'd be someone who looks different than me
