Brye - Direct Message lyrics
[Brye - Direct Message lyrics]
I've got a dm sitting in my inbox
From a teenage girl
"I don't know if you'll ever even read this
But how in the world
Did you get better?
I wanna get better too
You seem so confident
I wish I was like you"
And I don't know what to tell her
I'm not an expert
I don't have a cookie cutter answer
All I know for sure
Is one day it just hit me
Hating myself
Was probably gonna kill me
So I chose my health
It's been a long long battle
And tough five years
It took a lot to dismantle
And an endless amount of tears
But the more that I recover
It's easier to see
And when I look in the mirror
Sometimes I actually like being me
(When my thoughts get mean, what should I do?)
(I want to recover)
(When I gain weight, what should I do?)
"Brye!"
(I want to recover)
