Body Is Home

Guess she got tired of counting sheep
Started counting things she'd fix about herself before she fell asleep
Looked herself from head to toes
I'd fix my stomach and my nose
I'd change the way my body grows
Damn the way my body grows
Damn the way my body grows

Well it's innocent enough
You think it's innocent enough

But would you say the thing you tell yourself
To a stranger, a friend, or anybody else
I still remember she told me
The mirror speaks too loud
But girl, your body's home
Why do you burn yours down?

Look at a friend, look at her smile
Do you care what she looks like?
I don't care what you look like

And girl, one bite ain't giving up
Don't try for pretty, try for love
Try for smart and strong and tough
'Cause you're smart and strong and tough
Yeah, you're smart and strong and tough

And you're beautiful, too
You are beautiful

And would you say the things you tell yourself
To a stranger, a friend, or anybody else
I still remember she told me the mirror speaks too loud
But girl, your body's home
Why would you burn yours down?

So stay as you are
Love yourself first and you'll go so far
If you're looking for love
Put your hand on your heart
You're enough as you are

And would you say the things you tell yourself
To a stranger, a friend, or anybody else?
I still remember she told me the mirror speaks too loud
But girl, your body's home
Why would you burn yours down?
