The Creep is My Skinny Love
I told you to be who you should be
Knowing that I would leave you someday
I told you to be patient
To hold your anger and to be kind
I told you to be better
Because you thought
You didn’t have any control
You may not had the perfect body
Or thought you had a dying soul
But nothing could describe you
Other than beautiful
I’m telling you now
I’m no angel
I did make you cry
But we have the same skin
Only what’s beneath is different
For you have been hiding
Broken glasses
And an elephant in your veins
So stop thinking
That you are a creep
You aren’t like everyone else
But that makes you special
And that makes you
My skinny love.

"And I told you to be patient, and I told you to be fine." - Skinny Love, Bon Iver
