Текст Reese Lansangan – Tenderfoot

I feel a weight that’s heavier these days
No, I am not quite hurting, but I think that I’m in pain
I look at photographs of myself and they insist
There’s nothing wrong but if there isn’t

I was told to love my body
‘Cause it’s the only one that I’ll ever get
No, it’s not what people see, it is the mind inside of me that weighs me down
So each day I’ll try to do it better

The world is a mountain of its problems
And your worries start to feel very small
But there is a kid locked in the toilet all wrecked with guilt
Don’t tell me that doesn’t matter to you at all

I was told to love my body
‘Cause it’s the only one that I’ll ever get
No, it’s not what people see, it is the soul inside of me that keeps me whole
So each day I’ll try to do it better

I’m so afraid to talk about it, others might not understand
The way I don’t know how it’s like to be somebody else
O’ Lord, I pray that they won’t take me in my sleep
But don’t we all have our demons running deep

I saw a blind man on the streets the other day
I swear oh how I wish I could’ve rescued him away
But in my eyes oh I was crying down on my knees
And everything is changed for me

I was told to love my body
‘Cause it’s the only one that I’ll ever get
No, it’s not what people see, it is the heart inside of me that makes a man
So each day I’ll try

I was told to love my body
