I need the lyrics to this song painted on the walls of my high school ....
Yes i wish i could paint these all over the walls or maybe put a paper with these words in each locker....
Wow ... Yes!
Wow same xx
Now this is poetry. This is art. This gives me faith in humanity. Thank you so much for giving me hope
"love your body the way your mother loved your baby feet" hits me every time!!!!
Lena Iver sammmmmmeeeeee
Lena Iver yesssss
Yesss!
This make me cry, cause is so true and it hurts, trying to be acepted.
It made me cry too. This song is so beautiful, and I can relate to it so much. And it does hurt.
It made me cry to :'( The irony that 'be yourself' is what's said by celebrities. When they are the one who cause our insecurities.
Alli Zarnik Don't try to be accepted just accept yourself 💕
You are amazing. Never let anyone tell you otherwise.
Alli Zarnik honey you are beautiful the way you are
Can't remember the last time I cried this hard. Incredible how her words feel like someone punched me in the gut. I am deeply moved
Same here
PaulineMM me too
Mary Lambert is absolutely amazing! She writes songs that touch the heart so deeply.
holy shit. that was an emotional punch i wasn't expecting today.
"Offering this as a pathetic means to say, I only know how to exist when I am wanted"
"Your sexiness is defined by concentric circles within your wood; it's wisdom"
This song is a masterpiece. There's so much emotion in her voice. But I like this version much much better than the other one.
tragicomedy925 "perpetually waiting by the phone for someone to tell us that we did good. We did good."
I only know how to exist when I am wanted.... hits me EVERY TIME.
I hope everyone in the recording studio we're crying... This is such a beautiful peice
Don't touch my faceu I find ARMYS everywhere nowadays Jesus
전정국 내 사랑 same here
Ayyyy ARMY’s 😫🔥
I saw this live yesterday ... left me with goosebumps.. I am not sure all men will get this, but I doubt there is a woman who won't. Beautiful and raw. And she was so real live.
I'm sure I don't have the same experience listening to this song, but as I guy I've had body image issues myself. I've lost weight too quickly, cringed at certain features, and over time learned to treat myself with more gentleness and kindness. The ideas of self love and body love are relevant to everyone. Look at these comments. 30% are men!
Ryan Heemann I don't think people realize that boys deal with these issues too, and they do d it hard when they do meet someone who has gone through similar things, but here is what I want to say to you
Whether you weigh 100 lbs 200 lbs or whatever you are still perfect in everyway possible and no one should ever tell you otherwise, okay you were born the way you are, you were born as an original, don't try to be someone you're not
Boys get body issues too.
I'm not a woman - but this does speak to me.
Most of it is targeted at women, which is understandable because society puts more pressure on females to look a certain way, but certain things jump out at me.
"it's never easy to accept that our bodies are fallible and flawed"
"... I only know how to exist when I am wanted"
And the charred tree metaphor.
Men/boys do have body image issues.
yes they do ... it is not a woman only issue
9 years ago… I always come back to this.. so much has changed. Thank you Mary lambert for this gem ❤
How can one single person be so downright perfect?
I am in love with this beautiful woman and her amazing songs
It is ironic that u say that because she made this song saying no one is perfect, well i guess she meant physically. I'll shut up now
Maddie Damocles It's okay I understand what you mean :)
I just think she's perfect, everyone has flaws, sure, but that doesn't make someone less of a person. As long as your heart is in the right place, I think you're perfect, and Mary Lambert's sure is
To the 1% who reads this
Your skin isn’t paper, don’t cut it
Your face isn’t a mask, don’t cover it
Your body isn’t a book, don’t judge it
Your life isn’t a movie, don’t end it
Your heart isn’t a door, don’t lock it
Your Beautiful no matter what💞
Be you...
I lost it at "Well, you did good."

i feel like everybody should see this at some point in their life
this is absolutely incredible. the emotion she conveys through this solo performance of just her performing words is absolutely moving. it's beautiful to hear such strength within this. it's gorgeous.
The message is about self-love and body love, but also loving the scarred and hurt places within us .....this is a song that could change the face of society if enough people live this message!
The people being united in the comments, by similar sadness and hardship. The love shown and support offered to those who hate their bodies. This song has already changed so many people. Keep it going show people how much they are loved. I love you all❤️
WHAT THE FUCK. That was insanely beautiful.
I'm having a really bad time right now. and I just found out today that this amazing women, singing this amazing song. She made me see that my cuts need to stop. And that I should love myself. This song saved my life.

My body is home, and she helped me see that :')
Trust Me...We're All Going Through The Same Thing...Everyone Else's Opinion Shouldn't Matter To Us Anymore
I love this song so much! It's like a TED talk in song form though lol
Jodie Mills it’s spoken word!
as a guy, this song does affect me as well, the lyrics are very relatable no matter what gender. I love the way she is performing this song & the emotion is so real. i love this
"We did good..." MY EYES ARE DROWNING SHES SO PERFECT I JUST CANT
IM PRAYING THAT THIS VIRSION IS ON SPOTIFY
Theres something about the way that i know that she has performed this a hundred times but she is still giving an honest performance. The way she begins to rush at the end, the way the power in the keys increases. The way at the end her hands linger on the keys almost as if she is exhausted from the outpowering of emotion. I wish there was more of her spoken word available because holy fuck i get so many chill every time i see her perform this.
It doesn’t matter if I listen to this song on loop, I get chills and tear up every time. “Love your body like your mother loved your baby feet.” and “You are worth more than a waistline.” always get me.
I know it's a little strange for a guy to be listening when this is aimed for girls, but I love this so much.
It's not strange , hope you're doing well after 6 years ❤
It’s not strange at all💖
Can this version please be on Spotify!!!??
That's a spoken word poetry with background music, in case someone's wondering. I love Mary Lambert and her lyrics and I love spoken word poetry and this topic, it's almost unbearable. I am very skinny, not because I chose to be skinny and I still, after years of hating the image of my body in the mirror and learning to accept all the visible bones, feel insecure about my physical appearance, so this piece means the world to me
Every word, every syllable, every letter uttered in this song explains me. This song is me. I'm so obsessed with this.
im so glad i have this entire thing memorized
literally sobbing but feeling reborn ❤
best thing i have ever heard in my life.
Pure, innocent, perfect... Thank you.
this girl is so brave, even if i wanted or tried, to even read the lyrics out loud I know i would be able to even get to the middle, I would probably break down and start crying, this is too powerful and sad, and it hurts to know it is true.
you are beautiful regardless of the marks that life has left you, you are beautiful regardless of your weight or the size of your clothes, you are beautiful regardless of your sexual orientation, you are beautiful regardless of how different you are. Because that's what life is all about, accepting yourself and accepting others with our imperfections that make us perfect. Love is only for the brave💙
Why doesn't this have 200million views. I don't understand
Bryan Samaniego People it makes people think! You should try it
This is so raw.
I vowed to myself a few months back to accept my body and after everything it's become the most easiest thing ever. Yes I still have things I don't like about it but I never say I hate it now. I hate the word hate and don't use it in anything. I couldn't care less what people think about me because they have nothing to do with my life so it's easy now to not try so hard to be accepted because I just don't care. It's not everything. The older you get the more you realize looks just don't mean a thing, trying to be accepted doesn't mean a think and the kinder you get the more you accept everyone in all there shapes and sizes. The happier you become when you think of your body as a warm home rather than something to like at.
Rachael Marie I am so happy for you!! And what a beautiful way do describe this! I really needed it.
Thank you! 😍😍❤❤
God the emotion she puts into this is completely incredible
I know this by heart. It helped me so much over the years. I turn to it every time I struggle with my image and self worth. Every girl needs to hear this.
I have no words for this.
This goes beyond words.
I have goosebumps and tears in my eyes... Every girl on the planet needs to hear this song and listen to it everyday, so that they can actually believe in their hearts, always, that they are beautiful exactly how they are; that they needn't change one bit; that they should never feel that they have to hurt their perfect selves to be something a magazine wants them to be. Let this be the personal anthem for all women and girls - this could heal our broken self-esteem.
Mary Lambert, if you ever see this comment, I thank you with all of my heart for this empowering song. You are a strong and beautiful woman in every way, and an inspiration to me. People like you give me hope that we could turn our sick society that has the goal of shattering the self-esteem of females just to turn a profit, into a beautiful world where women and girls feel beautiful everyday, no matter what they're wearing, who they're with, what they're doing, or what they look like. Thank you, thank you, a million times thank you.
I'm obsessed with this. It's beautiful and uplifting and so powerful it leaves me in tears. I love this, finally a song with a true meaning.
"Love your body the way your mother loved your baby feet."
I'm absolutely in love with the way she bares her soul and doesn't hold anything back. You can feel the pain in every word and note.
It doesn't matter how many times I listen to, I always cry.
This is a master piece!
This is so powerful it made me cry
I might not be what this song is talking about, but I am insecure about myself and this has helped me feel better about what I look like. I might not be looking vulnerable on the outside, but when someone says something about my body (joking or not), it HURTS! Just because I put on a poker face and laugh it off doesn't mean that I agree, or that it's okay to say what you want about my body. Anyone can put on a smile and act like their okay, but just because my lips twitch up and my eyes glisten and I make a laughing noise in my throat, doesn't mean that I'm happy. So why do people think that it's okay to talk about each others body's? Especially to their face?
Laina D. Thanks
Anybody here in 2020?
this is so powerful and i swear to myself now that i'll remember every word this incredible woman has spoken in this song because i need to remember that for myself and my future
Fighting with tears right now. I have never ever heard such a touching and honest song, wrapping the most important words for so many girls and women in this horrible materialistic world into one single song. This song has the power to make such a big difference in social-norm-thinking. Simply impressive!
Lauren Jauregui brought me here and I couldn't be happier about it. So beautiful.
me tooo
this is gives me the shivers, breathtaking.
GOD DAMN!!! This is the deepest song I have ever listened to, FUCKING BEAUTIFUL!
I can't even describe the emotions I felt while watching this. amazing.
I'm so in love with this song, and its message, and how miss Lambert can sing it with that much emotion... I am also in love with this girl
I’m dancing to this song at dance. We are a group of girls who all don’t fit into the ideal body type, and we are PROUD of who we are. We feel this song every time we dance. Thank you for this, Mary Lambert!!
Something about the way she says " love yourself like mother loved your baby feet" makes break down everytime
Wow, I just listened to this for the first time and just WOW!!!
This is quite literally one of the most beautiful things to ever grace my ears and eyes. My ears, because I can feel every word she says and sings. My eyes, because I can see the pain and the urgency behind every uttered syllable. This is beautiful. Just beautiful.
Leaves me gutted and teary-eyed. So beautiful. Every girl should hear this.
Why hasn't this video gone viral? Every girl needs to hear this. So powerful, honest, and eloquent.
"I once touched a tree with charred limbs. The stump was still breathing but the tops were just charred remains and I wondered why it's like to come back from something that because sometimes I feel fires erupt from my wrists and the smoke signals send out the most beautiful things I've ever seen."
Gorgeous
It made me cry.... this song is so good, this is art!
I have listened to this so much. every month or two. Whenever I feel horrible about myself. Whenever I feel guilty about my past with self-harm. Whenever I feel like trash cause I gained weight fast. For years, Body Love has been my rock, grounding me to where I need to be. I'm gorgeous, no matter what my weight, my mental or physical scars, my acne, no matter what. And Mary Lambert is a fucking Goddess. So thankful for this song. It helped me stop self-harming to get out of panic attacks. I wish I could give her a big hug.
This song really touched my heart, thank you for writing such a deep and meaningful song. I shed a tear on this one. THIS is what needs to be on the radio more often, not bitches, money and ho's........
I’m balling. Can’t believe I’ve never heard this ever. I needed to hear this.
this is poetry. its so beautiful and has so much meaning in it. thank you so much
I normally don't have much time for art or music but I'm so glad I stumbled across this, it's stunning.
I have watched this all day on reply. :')
Wow. Amazing. Speechless. Everyone goes through tough times in life... Girls and guys. But we are all beautiful inside and out and we always have to remind ourselves. Life gets better too. There is somebody for everybody. :)
Sitting here crying..... sitting here crying because I am scared of how much I relate to this..... being in the hospital because of my 'battlefields' is something that hurts, hurts because you have the time to think... think of all the battles you've been through and did the wrongs things at the worst times.... crazy how relatable this is..... hope you have a good rest of your day who ever reads this
everyone feels the same pain, girls and boys, but this made us all cry equally
I'm not going to cry.
Because you don't get it! Or you can't relate to the song like the others :| but it is so powerfull
You don't understand my comment.
o, you meant it like it im going to try not to cry
mmh.
Oh my god. I have no words. That was beautiful.
This honestly deserves more views.
Mary Lambert and Melanie Martinez are my hero's because they both understand how hard life is when you're considered "not pretty enough"
AnimeTrash Otaku true.
Everybody who read this I love you and please stay strong. You're beautiful.♥
Listen to it everyday. Because it happens at school all the time, girls at school love this song, they never listen to the words, they take injections for their face, try working out because they all think they're fat, wear a bunch of makeup, try to eat incredibly healthy or not at all. She's right and I'm happy that Mary doesn't care about her body IM SO GLAD SHE IS DIFFERENT. 💜 THANK YOU
The thing is it true she is singing about real life problems and I can't stop crying she is such an inspiration 😭❤️
You know, sometimes weight is an issue for people not just caused by eating too much or not working out. Some people are just big because they are big. And she's telling these people that they are BEAUTIFUL regardless of these things. You shouldn't be defined my your body. But by what's inside. And that someone will love you regardless of what you look like. But you don't have to be loved to love yourself. Love yourself because you are you.
Thank you.
Incrediably powerful. Thank you.
No words can explain how amazing and real is this...
Today everything what we want to achieve is look good, be accepted, be perfect. But we will never be perfect. Nobody is perfect. And this is okay, this make us another and incredible.
We all are beautiful, sexy, amazing and we all gonna be loved. But first we have to be loved by ourselves.
I was so long in depression bc of my look, bc of my ugliness, bc of my body, bc of my unperfection.
But right now I know what is important. Important is to be who you are and love who you are. Never try to change yourself. You're amazing. Just the way you're.
This song is so amazing it literally gives me chills, I can relate to so much if what she's saying, through different parts if my life and even now. Thanks Mary for being a brave and strong enough woman to write this, your songs are truly works of art.
This is the most beautiful, powerful thing I have ever seen. Brings tears to my eyes.
Incredible. There's no words for how beautiful this song is.
So my friend and I were going through videos on UA-cam and I saw the link for this. After listening to this beautiful piece we sat in stunned silence for a long moment, both afraid to break back into reality... Mary you are truly an inspiration, even when you're hitting me right in the feels I love every minute of it. Thank you
...Im blown away. The performance is sheer beauty and the content, these words, are so valuable beyond the obvious. To me they speak for all the people who feel degraded day by day because of how they look and who they are, become void by learning to not be enough for the normative gaze. Her words are incredible.
Can we just talk about how amazing this was...
This is so much better with the piano! I love this!
This song is so passionate ...i get chills every time I listen. So amazing Mary!
I like this better than the explicit version; just seems more power. :) Love me some Mary!
I wish she put this version on Spotify
1st time in my life that i almost cried because of a song
This gives me such goose bumps
I'm not even that old yet and it makes me have tears in my eyes it's horrible how someone so young can understand such a thing thsnk you for being a voice
This is the only thing keeping me at piece right now. I wish I came across you sooner.
This was such a powerful performance, you are absolutely amazing Mary don't let anybody tell you different💖
I just would like to say thank you to this woman who made this because I am a dancer and I'm going to use this song in my lyrical solo piece
And I love this song a lot Ik how it feels I'm still trying to be accepted
It's an awesome and powerful song. Mary Lambert is living this performence and she really wants to gives us a message. I personally think that not only girls should be adressed by this. Every human beeing should have the opportunity to love them and their body. Because in fact everybody is beautiful. Try not to see the social norms. Try to see what's really important. The fact that you are alive. The fact that your body is your home. You should treat it like one.
Most beautiful thing ever!😥❤❤❤
IKR
Wow... Just speechless. I got chills. Also cried. This song / poem nees to be heard around the world.
