[Verse 1]
You wanna be perfect
Like a work of art
Like what you see in magazines
You wanna be perfect
It's gonna be worth it
And you've worked so hard
Been skippin' lunch for chewin' gum
It's gonna be worth it
[Pre-Chorus]
In your bedroom lookin' in the mirror
Weighin' up your options, battlin' your scales
In your head, screamin', open up your eyes
[Chorus]
But salvation
Never came from changin' body parts
Perfect is worthless if you lose yourself
Valuation
Never came from changin' body parts
Perfect is worthless if you bruise your heart for it
[Verse 2]
You wanna go places
Like a risin' sun
You wanna explore and open doors
You wanna go places
You wanna be famous
Wanna become someone
And like the waves, you're bound to break
And think of their faces
[Pre-Chorus]
In your bedroom thinkin' of tomorrow
You're just gonna start starvin' worse
In your head screamin', open up your eyes
[Chorus]
But salvation
Never came from changin' body parts
Perfect is worthless if you lose yourself
Valuation
Never came from changin' body parts
Perfect is worthless if you bruise your heart for it
[Post-Chorus]
I fought for such a long time
(Never came from changin' body parts)
To get here
I fought this war, now I love my scars
I fought for such a long time
(Never came from changin' body parts)
And I swear
You're so much more than all your body parts
[Bridge]
But salvation
Never came from changin' body parts
You're so much more than all your body parts
But salvation
Never came from changin' body parts
You're so much more than all your body parts
[Chorus]
But salvation
Never came from changin' body parts
Perfect is worthless if you lose yourself
Valuation
Never came from changin' body parts (Oh)
Perfect is worthless if you bruise your heart for it
[Post-Chorus]
I fought for such a long time
(Salvation never came from changin' body parts)
To get here, to get here
I fought this war, now I love my scars
I fought for such a long time
(Salvation never came from changin' body parts)
And I swear, and I swear
You're so much more than all your body parts
[Outro]
But salvation
Never came from changin' body parts
You're so much more than all your body parts
But salvation
Never came from changin' body parts
You're so much more than all your body parts
