lyrics

It has been far too long since I have understood
What it means to be comfortable,
And I could spend my years inching my way through this wretched skin,
But it would never satisfy my lust.

'Cause I am trapped here, but no one can see me.
And I am trapped here, and no one feels what I'm feeling.

Dysphoria at its best,
Paired with crippling doubt.
I've never believed in myself,
And I sure as hell am not starting now.

I'll never be able to find a man.
I'll never be able to find another human who understands that
This body is a cage and I'm not living.
This body is cage, and life's just not worth living
When there is just no way out.
I wanna be happy but there's no way out.

Dysphoria at its best.
Throw another punch and let's put this to the test,
See how much more I can take.
Just how much more can I take before I fall to the ground?
Shouldn't be long now.
It shouldn't be long now.
