So Unsexy.

Sadly, I have always identified with the lyrics of this song.

Thankfully, as time goes by, they ring less and less true for me.
Guiltily, I can admit to occasionally setting my self-worth and confidence down, and forgetting where I put them for awhile.

Happily I can say that I am getting much better at finding them these days.
Lyrically, the last two lines are the key.

"So Unsexy"

Oh these little rejections how they add up quickly

One small sideways look and I feel so ungood

Somewhere along the way I think I gave you the power to make

Me feel the way I thought only my father could

I can feel so unsexy for someone so beautiful

So unloved for someone so fine

I can feel so boring for someone so interesting

So ignorant for someone of sound mind

Oh these little protections how they fail to serve me

One forgotten phone call and I'm deflated

Oh these little defenses how they fail to comfort me

Your hand pulling away and I'm devastated

When will you stop leaving baby?

When will I stop deserting baby?

When will I start staying with myself?

Oh these little projections how they keep springing from me

I jump my ship as I take it personally

Oh these little rejections how they disappear quickly

The moment I decide not to abandon me

Have an AWESOME day!
