about

This is the acoustic version of our song, Body Body.

lyrics

My momma prayed that I'd be kind
My momma prayed my eyes be blue
My momma prayed I'd look like daddy
Look more like her to tell the truth

My momma prayed that I'd be kind
Even before I took a breath
She likes to tell me that old story
About the kind girl she would get

Mirrors talk, they talk loudly

Then screams my body, "Why don't you like me?"

My momma prayed that I'd be kind
My daddy prayed I'd see the world
But no one asked me to be pretty
Is that required of a girl

My momma prayed that I'd be kind
And Jesus taught me how to pray
Late night in my bed I would wake
Late night in my bed I would pray

Mirrors talk, they talk loudly

Then screams my body, "Why don't you like me?"

I'll love you til the day I die
I tell my stomach, tell my thighs
And I'm sorry for the cruel things I've said
To my body, to my mind
