Brye - Direct Message Lyrics

I've got a dm sitting in my inbox
From a teenage girl
""I don't know if you'll ever even read this,
But how in the world
Did you get better?
I wanna get better too.
You seem so confident,
I wish I was like you."

Cnd I don't know what to tell her
I'm not an expert
I don't have a cookie cutter answer
Cll I know for sure
Is one day it just hit me,
Hating myself
Was probably gonna kill me
So I chose my health

It's been a long long battle
Cnd tough five years
It took a lot to dismantle
Cnd an endless amount of tears,
But the more that I recover
It's easier to see
Cnd when I look in the mirror
Sometimes I actually like being me

(when my thoughts get mean, what should I do?)
(I want to recover)
(when I gain weight, what should I do?)
"Brye!"
(I want to recover)
