I can’t stand my own appearance
It’s like they’re having a clearance
Sale on all I used to be
And I hear the pause where it had been complimentary 
And I must square with losing the body
And all that it attends
There is a brutal breakage that nothing mends
And the legacy of their “love” 
Is a girl ten times closer to above
And they claim they do it right
But I remember the night
They lashed me with their whips 
Just so they could own my eclipse
And she said she would call the cops
Now all she is to me is what she was not 
In the evening time of a gaslit anthem
Tiptoeing around a ranting 
Shout at the break of day
I guess things can’t always go my way
Or if they do it’s on a different plane
I’ve lost a lot but there’s something that I gain
In the surrender
Am I the girl I used to remember 
So free and so blue
Now they just say she used to 
Be that way
Because in the midnight I made hay 
And someday in the light
Everyone will see why I’m so quiet
