through her eyes

Used to run around in my bathing suit
Used to eat all of my favorite foods
Didn't even think about it twice
Never checked sizes on my clothes
Never hid under heavy coats
I was just a kid playing outside
I wish it was still like that

I wanna look in the mirror
And see someone I like
I wanna look at a picture
Of myself and not wanna cry
Yeah, 'cause younger me wouldn't stop to think about if I looked all right
I wish I could see me
Through her eyes

Force myself to wake up at six
Didn't sleep well, but can't skip the gym
Gotta fit into that little skirt
Always running twenty minutes late
Tryna find an outfit I don't hate
Just to throw on a baggy shirt
I don't wanna feel like that

I wanna look in the mirror
And see someone I like
I wanna look at a picture
Of myself and not wanna cry
'Cause younger me wouldn't stop to think about if I looked all right
I wish I could see me
Through her eyes

She wouldn't give a shit about
The lines on my skin right around my eyes
The width of my hips going up a size
Yeah, the only thing I think she'd criticize

Is how I look in the mirror
And can't see someone I like
How I look at the pictures
Of myself and wanna cry
'Cause younger me would look right at me, say I'm the prettiest girl alive
I wish I could see me
Through her eyes
