Songtext
Looking in the mirror with judging eyes
Scanning through my features, I hate my thighs
These jeans don’t fit my figure,
My tummy’s growing bigger
I just can’t take it anymore
My knees are weak
I feel like shit
And I’m crying ugly
It’s I, my enemy
Wish I did not exist
But at the same time
I wanna feel alive
It’s I, my enemy
No one, will ever be
As harsh as I am
Being on myself
I feel like I’m not good enough
Everyone I meet is smarter, prettier all at once
And I strive to be like that
Not trying hard enough I guess
I just can’t take it anymore
My knees are weak
I feel like shit
And I’m crying ugly
It’s I, my enemy
Wish I did not exist
But at the same time
I wanna feel alive
It’s I, my enemy
No one, will ever be
As harsh as I am
Being on myself
Why can’t I just accept myself for who I am?
Why am I always so concerned of what people think?
When the truth is
That no one cares
I am just
Judging myself
It’s I, my enemy
Wish I did not exist
But at the same time
I wanna feel alive
It’s I, my enemy
No one, will ever be
As harsh as I am
Being on myself
Description
I’m eMi, stage name for Emilia Nebl, a singer-songwriter from Cles, a small town in Trentino. I started making music because it’s the only way I am able to express myself and it makes me feel alive; it’s always been there and it stays with me throughout whatever I am experiencing, thus being the only constant in my life.
To whom does your music speak?
With my songs I want to be able to convey emotions that anyone can connect with, no matter how different each listener is. I want my music to be a safe space. My music is for whoever resonates with that.
