This Body

歌詞

This body That's only done me wrong That always proved weak when I needed it strong That lays down to rest When I need to run That refuses to go just on This body whose neck and shoulders are steady as thread This body That's only let me down Whose head was always turned up to ten That wasn't chosen To be on anyone's team Was picked last and never fought hard enough It finally spoke out Said: "We need to see what this is about" Oh, body How I have wished of you That would look different than you do I'm sorry I feel apologetic You had better things to do You had an agenda And I never saw that You're growing a kid now, it's sprouting like hell now I'm suddenly dirt It's like finding a hidden door In the house you always lived in With a secret room, and it holds diamonds and pearls You're a rock and you're the sea You're the fox and you're the hunter You're not less and you're not more than anything You're your mother and your father You're their mothers and their fathers Let your shoulders down, you're not going to war
