Morality is self denial.
Beat yourself up and wait a while.
View your stained mirror with someone else's eyes.

Repent - Clean - Guilt free
Do it all again with good intentions and closed eyes.
Wash- Deny - Insecurity
Do it again and never question why.

The billboard tells you how to smile.
Keep your mind - It's worthwhile.

Pull down your ugly facade.
Cut myself open just to see a different color.
The world is photoshopped and auto-tuned.

I want to kiss your ribs again.
Feel the bruise again.
See your hollow face above me.
A grim and bleeding ecstasy.

You're everything i never wanted to be.
I can't get you out of me.

Repent - Clean - Guilt free.
Nobody is happy but you're oh so skinny.
I miss you because you're what i used to be.

you missed the capitalization of a couple I's in the last 2 stanzas - but still really good poem :)
