[Verse 1]
I keep looking at myself in the mirror
Hopin' it will change
And I keep wishing for a brand-new body
That I didn't have to blame
I'm seein' every flaw, like a failure
I'm usin' every cure, like a savior
Like tryna build a church out of all my hurt
When it really needs grace
[Chorus]
I gave all my time to nothin'
I focused on who I was not who I'm becomin'
My fears, they took up space
My eyes couldn't look away
I didn't even realize I worshiped what I hate
[Verse 2]
Half a bottle of red just before bed
Is the only way I dream
Before I rеally wake up
The first thing I touch is a button on a screen
I'm not guilty of leavin', not stickin' around
I'm guilty of stayin' and just chеckin' out
Yeah, I kept my head down and really missed out
On what's in front of me
[Chorus]
'Cause I gave all my time to nothin'
I focused on who I was, not who I'm becomin'
My fears, they took up space
My eyes couldn't look away
I didn't even realize I worshiped what I hate
[Bridge]
Why do the lies feel like the truth?
Why do I do the things I do?
Why do I fight so hard to keep my heart empty?
[Chorus]
'Cause I gave so much time to nothing
I focused on who I was, not who I'm becomin'
My fears, they took up space
My eyes couldn't look away
I didn't even realize I worshiped what I hate
[Post-Chorus]
I didn't even realize (Realize)
I didn't even realize (Realize)
I didn't even realize I worshiped what I hate
Didn't even realize I worshiped what I hate
[Outro]
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Didn't even realize, no (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Didn't even realize, didn't know (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) Mmm, yeah (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
I keep looking at myself in the mirror
Hopin' it will change
And I keep wishing for a brand-new body
That I didn't have to blame
I'm seein' every flaw, like a failure
I'm usin' every cure, like a savior
Like tryna build a church out of all my hurt
When it really needs grace
[Chorus]
I gave all my time to nothin'
I focused on who I was not who I'm becomin'

My eyes couldn't look away
