"This Body" lyrics

"This Body"

If this body was a house, I'd burn it down
And build myself a place where I'd feel safe
If this body was a night, I'd sleep it off
Tomorrow there would be another day

But this body is a doubt, creepin' in my mind
Tryna tell me how I'm supposed to feel inside (I feel inside)
Ooh (I feel inside)
And this body is a shell, nothin' but a mold
Most people fit so well, I wonder why I don't (Wonder why I don't)
Ooh (Wonder why I don't)

How I wish I had a body to call home

If this body was a cloud (Was a cloud), I'd float so proud (Float so proud)
The sky would let me be the way I am (Oh)
If this body was a sound (Was a sound), I'd let it out (Let it out)
I'd scream until the world would understand (Oh)

But this body is a doubt, creepin' in my mind
Tryna tell me how I'm supposed to feel inside (I feel inside)
Ooh (I feel inside)
And this body is a shell, nothin' but a mold
Most people fit so well, I wonder why I don't (Wonder why I don't)
Ooh (Wonder why I don't)

How I wish I had a body to call home
How I wish I had a body to call home
How I wish I had a body to call home
