I know girls (body love) 歌詞

I know girls who are trying to fit into the social norm
Like squeezing into last years prom dress
I know girls who are low rise, mac eyeshadow, and binge drinking
I know girls that wonder if theyre disaster and sexy enough to fit in
I know girls who are fleeing bombs from the mosques of their skin
Playing Russian roulette with death
Its never easy to accept that our bodies are fallible and flawed
But when do we draw the line
When the knife hits the skin
Isnt it the same thing as purging
Because were so obsessed with death
Some women just have more guts than others
The funny thing is women like us dont shoot
We swallow pills, still wanting to be beautiful at the morgue
Still proceeding to put on make-up
Still hoping that the mortician finds us fuckable and attractive
We might as well be buried with our shoes and handbags and scarves
Girls, we flirt with death every time we etch a new tally mark into our skin
I know how to split my wrist to reveal a battlefield too
But the time has come for us to reclaim our bodies
Our bodies deserve more than to be war-torn and collateral
Offering this fuckdom as a pathetic means to say
'I only know how to exist when Im wanted '
Girls like us are hardly ever wanted you know
Were used up and sad and drunk
And perpetually waiting by the phone for someone to pick up
And tell us that we did good
We did good
I know I am because I said am
I know I am because I said am
I know I am because I saidam
My body is home
My body is home
I know I am because I said am
I know I am because I said am
I know I am because I said am
Try this
Take your hands over your bumpy love body naked
And remember the first time you touched someone
With the sole purpose of learning all of them
Touch them because the light was pretty on them
And the dust in the sunlight danced the way your heart did
Touch yourself with a purpose
Your body is the most beautiful royal
Fathers and uncles are not claiming your knife anymore
Are not your razor, no
Put the sharpness back
Lay your hands flat and feel the surface of scarred skin
I once touched a tree with charred limbs
The stump was still breathing
But the tops were just ashy remains
I wonder what its like to come back from that
Because sometimes I feel a forest fire erupting from my wrists
And the smoke signals sent out are the most beautiful things
Ive ever seen
Love your body the way your mother loved your baby feet
And brother, arm wrapping shoulders, and remember
This is important:
You are worth more than who you fuck
You are worth more than a waistline
You are worth more than beer bottles displayed like drunken artifacts
You are worth more than any naked body could proclaim
In the shadows, more than a mans whim
Or your fathers mistake
You are no less valuable as a size 16, than a size 4
You are no less valuable as a 32A than a 36C,
Your sexiness is defined by concentric circles within yourwood
It is wisdom
You are a goddamn tree stump with leaves sprouting out
Reborn
