Shortcomings - Hookworms

This body’s nearly over

Lately, love feels cynical

A calloused mind

A softer structure

Lately I don‘t know

Don‘t be so self-destructive

I can‘t hide, I’m feeling fallow

Don‘t be so self-destructive

This year seems so endless

Just wanna plateau

Don‘t be so self-destructive

Erase, please erase it all

Don‘t be so self-destructive

Cause isolation stops me feeling more

I cannot bare to see my form

Disconnected, disconnected

Ashamed of blemishes and flaws

Disconnected, disconnected

I feel guarded, I feel less than strong

Disconnected, disconnected

Here where our bodies don‘t belong

Disconnected, disconnected

Found no way to love the world

I am tired out, I am

I’m tired out

Found no way to love the world

I remember the place where I first felt ashamed

Of my body in space

I was wrong, I was wrong

I cannot bare to see my thorn

Disconnected, disconnected

Ashamed of blemishes and flaws

Disconnected, disconnected

I keep guard and I feel less strong

Disconnected, disconnected

Here where our bodies don’t belong

Disconnected, disconnected

Please just hold out

You gotta hold out, it will come

Let’s talk about

When we were young and nothing mattered

Hold out, hold out and come

Please just hold out, hold out and come

And you’ve gotta hold out, hold out and come

I can’t help feelin' helpless

Hold out, hold out, it’ll come

Can’t promise, almost over

Hold out, hold out, it’ll come

I’m sorry, it’s always been there
