Picture Lyrics

Wish I was good at painting pictures

I'll write a song instead

Goosebumps and brand new dimples

Veins streak my thighs with red and blue

This body is new

I look in the mirror

The high school girl has disappeared

Now a young woman has taken her place

She's a little less round in the face but she takes up space

She takes up space

Not sure I recognize who I see but she seems a little more like

A little more like me

Me

When I see imperfect pictures

It pulls my spirits down

Try to put my energy

Back into something sound

Plant my feet on the ground

Who I am

Is nothing to cry about

Cause I can do so much more

Than a girl who keeps her eyes on the floor and apologizes

I'm not apologizing

Not sure I recognize who I see

But she seems a little more like

A little more like me

Me

Got a gallery of pictures

Hanging on the walls of my brain

Take them down one by one

And give each a new frame

New layers of paint

Cause I don't know who would fill them with so much hate

Now I recognize who I see, and she feels a little more like

She's just like me
