Body Dysmorphia
Struggles with Self-Image: Yearning for Acceptance and Love
Lyrics
Shape
Expressing a desire for a specific physical form or appearance.
I wish you shaped me how I wanted
Wishing for external influence or control over personal physical shape.
I really like it when you're gone
Finding satisfaction or relief when the subject is absent.
And I don't see your face
Not wanting to see the person's face, possibly due to negative emotions.
And I've been eating less
Describing attempts to reduce food intake without success.
But it never works
Acknowledging that eating less does not lead to the desired outcome.
And I'm always stressed
Feeling constant stress, likely related to the struggles mentioned.
Cos i'm always hurt
Linking stress to emotional pain, indicating a cycle of hurt.
And I
Expressing uncertainty or confusion in the speaker's state of mind.
Never know
Highlighting a lack of knowledge or understanding about a situation.
What to do
Conveying a sense of helplessness or indecision in the face of challenges.
Maybe if you lend your eyes for a day
Suggesting a desire for a different perspective, possibly from someone else.
Maybe that is the only way
Speculating that seeing oneself through another's eyes could bring happiness.
For me to be
Expressing a need to be content with one's identity.
Happy with myself
Desiring self-acceptance and happiness.
Yeah I've been eating less
Repeating the theme of attempting to eat less without achieving the desired outcome.
But it never works
Emphasizing the ongoing struggle with body image and its impact on stress.
And I'm always stressed
Connecting stress to constant emotional pain and injury.
Cos I'm always hurt
Highlighting the enduring nature of emotional distress.
And I
Reiterating a sense of confusion or lack of understanding in the speaker's mind.
Never know
Expressing ongoing uncertainty or confusion about the situation.
What to do
Repeating the feeling of helplessness or indecision in the face of challenges.
And I'm in love with someone
Revealing a one-sided romantic relationship, adding emotional complexity.
Who's in love with somebody else
Expressing the pain of being in love with someone who loves another.
And I wish I didn't look the way I do
Desiring a different physical appearance due to dissatisfaction with one's looks.
