My Body Isn’t Ready Lyrics
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
It's the Fourth of July
My friends wanna catch the tide
How I wanna go, but I'll stay home
Wish you could stay the night
But I am scared of the light
I don't want you to go, oh-oh, oh
I like you, but my body isn't ready
I want you, but the mirror won't let me
I try to be the person you're expecting
But I'm not ready, I'm not ready
And now I'm out of school
And I met someone new
Does she just like me for the things I do?
Now I've got nothing to prove
But my mind still goes back to you
And being young and having nothing to lose
I like you, but my body isn't ready
I want you, but the mirror won't let me
I try to be the person you're expecting
But I'm not ready, I'm not ready
If I could crawl out of my own skin, would you let me in?
If we could just be those kids again, maybe I could swim
I like you, but my body isn't ready
I want you, but the mirror won't let me
I try to be the person you're expecting
But I'm not ready, I'm not ready
I like you, but my body isn't ready
I want you, but the mirror won't let me
I try to be the person you're expecting
But I'm not ready, I'm not ready
"My Body Isn't Ready" by sombr is a contemplative indie pop song which discusses the emotional consequences of feeling insecure, having problems with one's self-image and coming-of-age experience. The lyrics describe how the narrator has found a person that they strongly like but cannot commit entirely to a relationship due to their personal problems with self-image. The phrase "the mirror won't let me" represents insecurities and body image troubles which prevent accepting someone and becoming worthy enough for that. However, with time going on, the narrator gets out of school, gets into a new relationship and the memories of his or her past and all insecurities stay with him or her. The nostalgic desire "to be those kids again" represents the wish to go back to simpler times when insecurities were not as hard to bear.
