lyrics

I pick apart my body
I pick apart my body
and I have no fingernails
so i use a pushpin instead
I pick apart my body
I pick apart by body
and it hurts to walk on open skin
so i don't get out of bed

you hate when people say dumb things
all i say is what
all i say is wow
all i say is good luck
and i'm bad at math and history
i just write poetry
i cant even be the girl i'm supposed to be
who breaks boundaries

chorus

i'm not a girl i'm not a boy
so i'm not real
i pray to somebody that
some day i'll feel

chorus
