Billie Eilish SKINNY Lyrics

Oh, oh

I fell in love for the first time
With a friend, it’s a good sign
Feeling off when I feel fine
Twenty-one took a lifetime
People say I look happy
Just because I got skinny
But the old me is still me
And maybe the real me and I think she’s pretty

And I still cry, cry
And you know why

Am I acting my age now?
Am I already on the way out?
When I step off the stage
I’m a bird in a cage
I’m a dog in a dog pound
And you said I was your secret
And you didn’t get to keep it
And the internet is hungry for the meat
It’s kinda funny that somebody’s gotta feed it

Oh
Do you still cry?
Still cry?
Oh, cry
Cry
Ah-ah, I

I never did you wrong (Never did you wrong)
And my (Oh), my patience is gone (Is gone)
And I (I), I never did you wrong (You wrong)
I, I loved you for so long
Mm-mm

(Ah-ah)
