measure my worth - mia stegner lyrics
growing up i liked to think about myself as if i were a character like in the books i read
tried to figure out the things that made me me, to see if i would love this character or want her dead
and if i ever wasn’t quite compelled
that’s when i’d fall apart and start to weld
ever since birth
i’ve tried to find ways
to measure my worth
measure my worth
ever since birth
i’ve tried to find ways
to measure my worth
at times i thought i’d try to make my life feel like a movie, now i think i’ll frame it as a show
the actors make mistakes, and maybe there’s commercial breaks, but at least there are lots of episodes
more than one beginning, middle, and end
at least one character a friend
ever since birth
i’ve tried to find ways
to measure my worth
measure my worth
ever since birth
i’ve tried to find ways
to measure my worth
as long as i can make one thing i’m proud of that will be enough, so i had better keep on making stuff
if i don’t do one thing today then i’m a piece of trash, it could be better, so could i, i’ve always known i’ll never reach the sky
i have to get good grades and earn some praise and actually find a way to maybe make some friends this time for real
gotta do my chores and homework, gotta smile at the world, it doesn’t matter how i feel
ever since birth
i’ve tried to find ways
to measure my worth
measure my worth
ever since birth
i’ve tried to find ways
to measure my worth
now it’s time to measure my worth by how i measure my worth and how i’ve done so all along
be kind to myself and put my worries on a shelf or else i’m doing this all wrong
something’s not quite right with how you smile, you should jog a daily mile, change your hair and change your voice and change your skin and become strong
something’s wrong with how you laugh, sometimes i hate myself on your behalf, in case you don’t dislike me because you’d be wrong
sorry to write another sad song
wish i had more wisdom to share, i guess don’t measure your worth
maybe the point is we’re all worthless anyway?
but that’s not what i think, we all matter every day
have i ruined this song with this weird verse that doesn’t rhyme well?
i guess this is the bridge and i can do whatever i want
i kind of like it, but i’ll probably hate it once i share it
ever since birth
i’ve tried to find ways
to measure my worth
measure my worth
ever since birth
i’ve tried to find ways
to measure my worth
