Shoulders

I don't recognize myself

It's surreal surely I'm thinking of somebody else

I don't think I look like the front-woman of a band

But that's where I am

These people on my shoulders

Don't have my best intentions in mind

I was just trying to get through the workday

Without crying in the backroom

You never thought I was trying my best

I've never thought I was trying my best

Do you want to be in my movie

Is that the only way you'll see how you've affected me

You never thought that I was trying my best

I'm losing the weight of hating my body

Shame or guilt or maybe I was ill

So many red flags have me feeling unlucky

But that's where I've been

These people on my shoulders

Don't have my best interest in mind

I was just trying to get through the party

Without crying in the bathroom
