bow anderson – dear body lyrics

[verse 1]
started when i was a child
watching my mom go on a diet
i thought maybe i should try it
dropped a size and lost my mind in the process
waking up afraid to change
i put all my self+worth on my weight
living on compliments from strangers
self+criticizing in the mirror years later

[pre+chorus]
toxic secrets i made you keep
i starved you out when you needed to eat
but now that i see it, i wanna set you free

[chorus]
dear body
i just wanna say i’m sorry
’cause i’d never do this to somebody else
but it’s easy to hurt myself
dear body
you’re taking good care of me
i wish i could say the same about you
after all that i put you through
i’m sorry, dear body
[verse 2]
draggеd myself back to the gym
when it was thеrapy i should’ve been in
i never felt good in my skin
and i still wear a t+shirt when i swim
ruined so many holidays
skipping the birthday ’cause of cake
counted every last little taste
wondering when it would up on my thighs or my face

[pre+chorus]
i know better now that i’m older
but in photos i still hate my shoulders
i wanna heal this, i wanna set us free

[bridge]
i said you were too big, then you were too small
too many curves or none at all
why was i so cruel when you’re me and i am you?
i’m sorry, dear body
(i’m sorry, dear body)
(i’m sorry, dear body)
(i’m sorry, dear body)
[chorus]
dear body
i just wanna say i’m sorry
’cause i’d never do this to somebody else
but it’s easy to hurt myself
i’m sorry, dear body
