[Verse 1]
My face looks skinner than it did last year
Life of love and hate and joy and fear
A place not so distant from this here
No
How'd my hair grow when I was eighteen?
How would I nurture my self esteem?
How did my bones grow in such tiny skin?
I don't know
[Chorus]
Things I couldn't see
Things that I still don't
Still I'm one step closer to me
Still I'm one step closer
[Verse 2]
Mouth sings words it thirsted to let be
Comprehending sexuality
Chains losing its grip around my wrists
And my throat
[Chorus]
Things I couldn't see
Things that I still don't
Still I'm one step closer to me
Still I'm one step closer
[Outro]
Things I couldn't see
When I was eighteen
Things I still don't know
It's ok though
I'm one step closer to me
