More than skin
Oh whoa
More than skin
Oh whoa

They say smaller is better, keep it together
Don't take too much space
They say you are too much yet you're still not enough
So stay in your place

They say if you mess up, you'll lose their love
Don't make a mistake
They say make sure you look perfect, don't show if you're hurting
Pretend you're okay

If beauty is skin deep and that's all I need
Why else would I be alive?

You are more than skin
You are more than bone
You are more than a world grown harsh and cold
You are heart and soul
You are love made whole
You are more than the world will ever know
You are more than hurt
You are seen and known
You are more than what's under your clothes
And no one can take what's under your skin
What's under your skin
Oh whoa
Oh whoa

They say don't be a burden
Don't show when you're hurting
Just keep it inside
So you smile
But when you're alone
The scars on your arms show
The truth that you hide

They say your pain's inconvenient
He didn't mean it
Just push down the shame
They say the hurt that you're feeling
It doesn't have a meaning
So you drink it away

If I'm already broken
And everyone knows it
Then why should I be alive?

You are more than skin
You are more than bone
You are more than a world grown harsh and cold
You are heart and soul
You are love made whole
You are more than the world will ever know
You are more than hurt
You are seen and known
You are more than what's under your clothes
And no one can take what's under your skin
What's under your skin
Oh whoa
Oh whoa

I am a daughter
I am a sister
I am a mother
I am, I am
I am stronger
I am a fighter
I am a survivor
I am, I am

I am more than skin
I am more than bone
I am more than the world will ever know

I am more than skin
I am more than bone
I am more than a world grown harsh and cold
I am heart and soul
I am love made whole
I am more than the world will ever know
I am more than hurt
I am seen and known
I am more than what's under my clothes
And no one can take what's under my skin
What's under my skin
Oh whoa
Oh whoa

They'll never take what's under your skin
They'll never break what's under your skin

I am stronger
I am a fighter
I am a survivor
I am, I am
