biggest t-shirt

(album: Mood Swings - 2022)

She gets home and puts on her biggest t-shirt
She likes to hide from her own skin
And her eyes wander when she sees her reflection
She hates the shoes she's standing in

And yeah she knows she's beautiful
But she thinks the mirror lies
And she keeps it all inside

But if you knew her at all
You'd know those pretty walls
Were built to make her feel so small
How she holds in all this hurt
Underneath the cotton sleeves of her biggest t-shirt
Of her biggest t-shirt

She shuts the door and puts on her favorite record
Tryna drown out her whole world
And mama's asking, "Where'd my happy girl go?"
She doesn't know
No she doesn't know

She doesn't have to say a word
She doesn't have to try
'Cause you can see it in her eyes

But if you knew her at all
You'd know those pretty walls
Were built to make her feel so small
How she holds in all this hurt
Underneath the cotton sleeves of her biggest t-shirt
Of her biggest t-shirt

She used to have the sweetest smile
She hasn't seen it in a while
And it makes you wonder why

But if you knew her at all
You'd know those pretty walls
Were built to make her feel so small
How she holds in all this hurt
Underneath the cotton sleeves of her biggest t-shirt

She looks just like me
Underneath the cotton sleeves
