Liz James - Make Over Lyrics

Mirror's being cruel today
I know that I shouldn't be so vain
I'm down on myself
Wishing I was someone else
Counting all the lines on my face
Wearing plus size, I can't lose the weight
I'm down on myself
Wishing I was someone else

Old wounds still hurt
Insecure girl
Putting on a brave mask
Behind the wall
Pain and turmoil
Seeping up between the cracks

Make me over
Make me beautiful
Make me feel acceptable
Tell me the lies that satisfy
My ego needs so I don't cry
Make me over
Make me feel normal
Make me seem respectable
Pick my bones until there's no
More shame for me to hide

Scales are telling lies once again
Heavy feeling, days since I've eaten
I'm down on myself
So detrimental to my health
Cover up the scars on my skin
Paint the greys and tuck my stomach in
I'm down on myself
Wishing I was someone else

Hashtag body goals
No filter souls
A picture that I'll never be
Low self esteem
Body shame regime
Damaging to girl's like me

Make me over
Make me beautiful
Make me feel acceptable
Tell me the lies that satisfy
My ego needs so I don't cry
Make me over
Make me feel normal
Make me seem respectable
Pick my bones until there's no
More shame for me to hide

Shame for me to hide
Make me over
