Additional Information

"SKINNY" introspects on Billie Eilish's insecurities. The song explores various themes, including the experience of falling in love for the first time, possibly with a woman, the contrast between internal and external perceptions, and anxieties about aging.

"SKINNY" is just one of Billie Eilish's many songs that touch on body image. Tracks like "idontwannabeyouanymore" from her 2017 EP Don't Smile at Me express her insecurities about appearance and the pressure to conform to beauty standards. This theme continues in "All the Good Girls Go to Hell" from her 2019 album When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? and "Overheated" from her 2021 album Happier Than Ever, both of which explore societal pressures and the pursuit of perfection, which can be intertwined with body image issues.

BILLIE EILISH - SKINNY Lyrics

---
[Intro]
Hmm, hmm

[Verse 1]
Fell in love for the first time
With a friend, it's a good sign
Feelin' off when I feel fine
Twenty-one took a lifetime
People say I look happy
Just because I got skinny
But the old me is still me and maybe the real me
And I think she's pretty

[Chorus]
And I still cry
Cry
And you know why

[Verse 2]
Am I acting my age now?
Am I already on the way out?
When I step off the stage, I'm a bird in a cage
I'm a dog in a dog pound
And you said I was your secret
And you didn't get to keep it
And the internet is hungry for the meanest kinda funny
And somebody's gotta feed it

[Chorus]
Oh, do you still cry?
Still cry
Cry

[Bridge]
I never did you wrong (Never did you wrong)
And my (Oh), my patience is gone (Is gone)
And I (I), I never did you wrong (You)
I, I loved you for so long (Hmm)

[Instrumental Outro]
