I Love My Skin (Live) (The Hollow Pines)

[spoken word intro] 'Sometimes I write a song that really hits home. The idea behind 'I Love My Skin' was the body shaming. We should all learn to love the body we've been given. No matter what. We are all beautiful in our own way' [verse 1] Take a look at my hands They're far too small I always kept falling down Whenever I climbed the wall. My knuckles are scarred Like a badge of honour When I said I'd cover them up It didn't mean I was gonna. [chorus] I love my skin Even with it's flaws Yeah; I've got mine And you've got yours Though it's not perfect I love the body I'm in Learned to love what I was given Yeah; Yeah; I love my skin. [verse 2] Take a look at my feet Far too big and clumsy Whenever I rode my bike The pedals always hit me. I was told to join a circus They always need a clown That's why my smile Was permanently upside down. [chorus] I love my skin Even with it's flaws Yeah; I've got mine And you've got yours Though it's not perfect I love the body I'm in Learned to love what I was given Yeah; Yeah; I love my skin. [verse 3] It doesn't matter what you've got It's what makes you who you are Love every birthmark and blemish Embrace the slightest scar. [chorus] I love my skin Even with it's flaws Yeah; I've got mine And you've got yours Though it's not perfect I love the body I'm in Learned to love what I was given Yeah; Yeah; I love my skin. I LOVE MY SKIN I LOVE MY SKIN I LOVE MY SKIN [spoken word outro] 'We've been The Hollow Pines. Remember to love your skin. You've been amazing. Thank you and goodnight'
