More Than My Body

I'm more than my body
More than what you see
Take a look deeper
You'll see the soul inside me

It's not that hard to find
I'll open up to you
If you'll just let me say
What I need most is someone like you

Few people stay around to listen
Few people seem to care
When someone finally does, it feels like I don't deserve them
And those people aren't often everywhere

It's become so hard to trust
When I only seem to disappoint
Or when others become jealous of the attention
No need to be jealous of those boys

Those boys are only trouble
But for some reason I'm drawn to them
Maybe because they're so easy
So easy to believe when you just need a friend

No one ever meets the expectations
Because it's so hard to measure up
When your surroundings only seem to push them away
No one wants to get stuck

Love is more than attraction
More than what meets the eye
I'm more than my body
Don't ask me how or why

No one's ever told me
Ever looked that far
I tell myself I'm more than my body
Though seeing it myself is sometimes hard

Love is more than attraction
More than what meets the eye
I'm more than my body
Don't ask me how or why
