Bones

I used to wonder used to wonder what it was like to be loved for me

I felt like if I were to lose all the acne someone would see me

I thought that the prettier I could become the more options I'd receive years later

And I'm still just as lonely

Actually I might be more alone than ever

Someone forgot to tell me that Max Ruby Woo lipstick won't make it better

That long hair, nice skin, and abs won't last forever

That the men you let in are still out looking for treasure

Being physically gorgeous isn't a savior

And havin' the most beautiful smile won't save him

I forgot to hold onto who I was on the inside

I wish it were easy for me to let people see what's on the inside

I wish somebody would've told me I was already perfect on the outside for the person who is perfect for me

These bones have always been quite lovely

These bones can't wait to be touched

These bones can't wait to be loved

To hold trust

To build and bear life for 9 months

To be held through the roughs beyond the lust

These bones could always keep up

These bones have been bruised, broken, and cut

These bones could never give up on me

Or you

I used to wonder what it was like to be loved for me

By you
