When it comes to me don't know why I'm such a hater
Should I skip lunch or should I throw it up later?
This hoodie's too big but it makes me feel safer
Feel safer
Haven't had the guts to look at mirrors in a while
Don't take my picture unless you wanna see me spiral
I eat to cope, feel the guilt, stuck in a cycle
In a cycle

We got every crutch, every drug, every medicine
But there ain't no pill for comparison
Yeah, we got TikTok, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram
But there ain't no pill for comparison

All these pretty people wear me thin
'Cause I purge myself to look like them
We got every crutch, every drug, every medicine
But there ain't no pill for comparison

There ain't no pill for comparison

Don't try to help me 'cause I just don't care what the price is
I'mma measure my worth in calories and sizes
What you call a meal, I call an existential crisis
So cue the crisis
Perception's distorted, my habits are horrid
The thoughts in my head just keep getting more morbid
If I cheat then I fail, but the diets make me hate myself
Either way I'm still in hell

We got every crutch, every drug, every medicine
But there ain't no pill for comparison
Yeah, we got TikTok, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram
But there ain't no pill for comparison

All these pretty people wear me thin
'Cause I purge myself to look like them
We got every crutch, every drug, every medicine
But there ain't no pill for comparison

Everyone of us will look the same
When they lower us into our graves
So I need somebody to explain
Why we worship someone else's face
The perfect body won't be enough
On the day it's pushing daisies up
The only thing that they'll be thinking of
Is what you did and how you loved

All these pretty people wear me thin
'Cause I purge myself to look like them
We got every crutch, every drug, every medicine
But there ain't no pill for comparison
How do I feel safe in my own skin
When I've always been the ugly friend?
We got every crutch, every drug, every medicine
But there ain't no pill
There ain't no pill for comparison
