Layers.
I'm within layers.
You tell me to peel
One by one a piece of me falls
One by one.
You say you need more
As I'm standing there naked like
You know that I'm not yet bare
Underneath Layers..
I have layers upon layers
You tell me to try
When I do it's never enough
When I try to be bare you have others
that are Bare with you
I'm tired
I'm tired of trying
Trying to please what can not be pleased
I'm hiding beneath layers and you wonder why
What if every peeled off piece of me screamed
At what has been said to me
What if every piece of me that falls
Rocks the floor you stand on for every scar
That's been given
I peel and peel
I have layers
It's never enough
