Jamisen - Compliment

You look just like your father
I was told that when i was young
If they knew just what they said
Would lead to what i did at 10
They would've said i was like my mother

Crying on the kitchen floor
I don't deserve anymore
Anything else is gonna make me hate me
Oh I wanna tell myself
All those stupid things i felt
Don't go away they just get smaller

Your jeans fit bigger
You're feeling thinner
And smiling way less than before
You skipped dinner
And you're not a quitter
Keep it up oh but what for?
I promise you this
You're worth more than a compliment

I don't blame anyone specific
It's not just one thing that they said
It's all the things that they didn't
When all I needed was somebody there
Someone to care

Crying on the bathroom floor
I don't want this anymore
Why do I think that they all hate me maybe
Oh I wanna tell myself
All the stupid things I felt
Won't go away if I get smaller

Your jeans fit bigger
You're feeling thinner
And smiling way less than before
You skipped dinner
And you're not a quitter
Keep it up oh but what for?
I promise you this
You're worth more than a compliment

You're worth more than a compliment
