Stairs
Unveiling Insecurities: Anna Preston's Powerful Anthem on Self-Image
Lyrics
No I don't go to parties
No, I don't attend parties.
And you don't know my name
You are unaware of my identity.
But when I walk beside you
However, when I'm walking next to you,
You're starin' all the same
You're staring at me all the same.
And it don't make a difference
It doesn't matter how obvious my fear is.
How much you know I'm scared
I'll disregard all the lack of understanding
I'll ignore all the ignorance
Because I'm not prepared for it.
Because I'm unprepared
I'll continue despite being unprepared.
Cause my body's like an Insta Baddie's
My appearance resembles that of an Instagram influencer, but
But you can tell that I'm not happy
You can sense that I'm not content or happy.
I'll starve myself 'til you admit you care
I'll deprive myself until you acknowledge your concern.
Cause no matter how short I cut my hair
Despite how short I cut my hair,
(They always stare, they always stare)
(People always stare, they always stare)
Even in those ugly clothes I wear
Even when I'm wearing unattractive clothing,
(They always stare, they always stare)
(People always stare, they always stare)
I couldn't get rid of it
I can't get rid of this situation even if I attempt.
If I tried
(Believe me, I've tried)
(Trust me I've tried)
You're here for the excitement of it,
You're here for the thrill of it
But what if I ceased to exist?
But what if I died
(Believe me, I've tried)
(Trust me I've tried)
(Empty line)
Maybe we're all searching
Validation for our worth,
For validation
But I've reached my limit;
But I've had enough
I believe it's time for a break or escape.
I think it's time
For a vacation from this cycle.
For a vacation
(Empty line)
Cause no matter how short I cut my hair
Even in those unattractive clothes I wear,
Even in those ugly clothes I wear
(Empty line)
And no matter how short I cut my hair
(They're always there, they're always there)
(They're always there, they're always there)
Even in those unattractive clothes I wear,
Even in those ugly clothes I wear
(People always stare, they always stare)
(They always stare, they always stare)
