I'm Sorry

Song I wrote awhile ago when feeling super insecure about my body and a toxic romantic partner.

[Verse 1]

Always felt out of touch, not pretty

Did all the right things, but stayed that way

Now I know it wasn’t meant to be

For me anyway

Love yourself, they told me

It’s not about the form you bear

Yet deep inside how bad it feels

When they look away

[Chorus]

I'm sorry I don’t look the way you want me

I'm sorry this is the best that I can do

But more than anything else, I'm sorry for myself

Not keeping up with you

[Verse 2]

My friends tell me I’m stunning, I post I’m feelin’ fine

Photoshop hides my sags, my rolls and wrinkle lines

But reality is cruel, and society makes the rules 

Some body types were just meant to hide

[Chorus]

I'm sorry that I slow you down too often

I'm sorry this is just the shape of me

But more than anything else

I'm sorry for myself

I guess I’ll try to fast again

[Chorus]

I'm sorry you feel like you settled

I'm sorry for the shame I put on you

But more than anything else

I'm sorry for myself

If only I could wish away…
