My narrowing shoulders, my shrunken heart
My narrowed line of vision, I’ve become so timid
My words have decreased, my head hanging low
Phone numbers are meaningless now, I barely go out

I’ve become an adult
But I feel like I’m getting smaller
When the me that I dreamed of
And the actual me is so different
Then, then

I tell myself it’s alright
I’m fine just as I am right now
It’s just typical words of comfort
But they are words I never told myself
Words that aren’t as easy to say

I’m fine the way I am
I’m really fine just the way I am
I may seem like a painting that’s not finished
But if you look more closely
I’m still shining

The weight is getting heavier, my worries are increasing
My sighs getting deeper, I’m only thinking

I always thought my room was too big
But now it feels empty sometimes
I try running farther than others
But I feel like I’m frozen sometimes
Then, then

I tell myself it’s alright
I’m fine just as I am right now
It’s just typical words of comfort
But they are words I never told myself
Words that aren’t as easy to say

I’m fine the way I am
I’m really fine just the way I am
I may seem like a painting that’s not finished
But if you look more closely
I’m still shining

Even if I feel smaller at the end of a long day
Right now, I can smile, just as I am
