Judge me, feel free
Cause the freer you feel
The freer you'll let me be
It's such a terrible terrible shame
You keep on judging me in his name
You're so quick to shift the focus
But you can find yourself
In today's frame
But I know he'd approve
And I've nothing to prove to you
He smiled down on me lovingly
Judge me, feel free
Cause the freer you feel
The freer you'll let me be
It's truly sad to see
You suffering so immensely
You need distracting
So you use me conveniently
But I know he'd approve
And I've nothing to prove to you
He smiled down on me lovingly
Cause the freer you feel
The freer you'll let me be
You keep on judging me in his name
You're so quick to shift the focus
But you can find yourself
In today's frame
But I know he'd approve
And I've nothing to prove to you
He smiled down on me lovingly
Cause the freer you feel
The freer you'll let me be
You suffering so immensely
You need distracting
So you use me conveniently
But I know he'd approve
And I've nothing to prove to you
He smiled down on me lovingly

Basically, 'say what you want about me', but I don't give a shit. Good stuff.
I perceived this song as specifically about being judged about sexuality (Sia is bisexual and has identified as queer).
"You keep on judging me in His name" The person judging her is using religion/God as an excuse for their homophobia
"You can't find yourself in today's frame" The person judging has old fashioned views and sees homosexuality as a sin
