Pencil Me In

Pencil me in my darling
Will you look away from you and back at me?
Will you let go of yourself without substance and fall back in line?
We can’t go back in time
Pencil me in my darling
Can you let go of yourself for a while?
You crave more, you’ll miss it all, but you don’t know it
So, leave and let me be, leave and then you’ll see
Oh, I’m trying
Oh, I’m trying
Pencil me in my darling
This anxiety I wish you could blow away
I won't pretend to understand because I don’t, love
So, run away from me, please leave and set me free
‘Cos I’m done trying
Oh, I’m trying
Oh, you self-destructive, limited, free wild one
I guess you threw away all that was there
Do you question yourself in this darkness?
When there is no fight but flight, when you leave me in the night
And I’m done trying
Oh, I’m done trying
I’m done trying
So, erase me from your mind, my darling
Don’t you pencil me in, I’ve changed my mind
Can’t you see I was trying to help just one more day, love
So, erase me from your mind, I’ll not be back this time.
‘Cos I’m done trying
Oh, I’m done trying
I’m done trying
Oh, I’m done trying

Hey Skinny, what you waiting for?
For things to feel pretty?
He said… I don’t like myself today
Hey Stunner, wipe away those tears
You’re gonna love another
She said… I don’t deserve him anyway
You think I’m crazy
But I don’t disagree
But I don’t disagree young lady
I watched a woman on the internet
She told me I should eat well, look after myself
Oh, I listened and I tried
I met a girl who was 17
Her name was Isabella, reminded me of me
Oh, I listened as she cried
She said
You think I’m crazy
But oh, I disagree
Oh, I disagree young lady
You think I’m crazy
But oh, I disagree
Oh, I disagree young lady
Why do we all hate ourselves?
I wish I liked me like you do
Why do we compare ourselves?
I wish I loved me like you do
You think I’m crazy
I don’t disagree
I don’t disagree young lady
You think I’m crazy
I don’t disagree
I don’t disagree young lady
Why do we all hate ourselves?
Why do we compare ourselves?
Why do we all hate ourselves?
