Body Lyrics
Take my eyes, take them aside
Take my face, and desecrate
My arms and legs
They get in the way
And take my hands, they'll understand
Take my heart, pull it apart
And take my brain, or what remains
And throw it all away
'Cos I've grown tired of this body
A cumbersome and heavy body
Take my lungs, take them and run
Take my tongue, go have some fun
And take the ears, take them and disappear
Take my joints, take them for points
Take my teeth, tear through my cheeks
And take the nose go and dispose
Oh would you go dispose, just go dispose
'Cos I've grown tired of this body
A cumbersome and heavy body
I've grown tired of this body
Fall apart without me body
Take my (eyes),
take them (aside)
Take my (face)
and desa (crate)
Arms and (legs)
Get in the (way)
Bodies (break)
I've grown tired of this body
Cumbersome and heavy body
Tired of this body
Fall apart without me body
Tired of this body
Cumbersome and heavy
Tired of this body
Fall apart without me
Tired of this body
tired of this body
tired of this body
cumbersome and heavy body
Heavy body
heavy body
heavy body
Take my face, and desecrate
My arms and legs
They get in the way
Take my heart, pull it apart
And take my brain, or what remains
And throw it all away
'Cos I've grown tired of this body
A cumbersome and heavy body
Take my tongue, go have some fun
And take the ears, take them and disappear
Take my joints, take them for points
Take my teeth, tear through my cheeks
And take the nose go and dispose
Oh would you go dispose, just go dispose
A cumbersome and heavy body
Fall apart without me body
take them (aside)
Take my (face)
and desa (crate)
Arms and (legs)
Get in the (way)
Bodies (break)
Cumbersome and heavy body
Fall apart without me body
Cumbersome and heavy
Fall apart without me
tired of this body
tired of this body
cumbersome and heavy body
heavy body
heavy body

I personally think it's just think it's about feeling so tired and fed up with everything to the point that you want people to just take all of what you are because you just don't care anymore.
Well that's pretty much what I feel whenever I listen to it anyway. Haha
I agree with Bjanes18 but I want to further elaborate on what was said. It might be hard to understand what Bjanes18 was saying but I think that it is about just feeling disconnected with yourself and losing that level of self love and self care that you once had. You begin to just not care about your body. It's really just an empty vessel. You are physically there but mentally not. It's also about feeling numb, feeling like you don't care whats done to you because you know it won't hurt, and you know it won't feel good. I go through this kind of feeling when I go through my depression.
This is a very good song, and props to the many rhymes for the body parts.
As for actual song meaning, it seems that the artist is merely making a statement about his/her self image, or maybe even self confidence. I think it's a safe bet to say that the artist doesn't feel comfortable being as they are, and would seek to alter their image of themselves given the chance.
I dunno. Seems more to me about transcendence and a plea for the body to just fall away so the singer can become pure soul/mind. Alternately it seemed kind of as if it was from the perspective of someone disabled or otherwise minoritized--mainly because of the sense of feeling encumbered by your body rather than empowered.

This definitely reminds me of my health problems, I've actually said variations of "I just wanna rip these stupid organs outta my body!" before. but as for the intended meaning, I'm thinking the speaker is frustrated with herself, like "fuck this, I give up."
I think it's about depression.

I think it is about this person being hurt mentally and physically so many times that they want to just get rid of themshelves piece by piece because they are so empty and hopless on the inside that they lost who ther were and there meaning of life
I think its about dysmorphia and how the narroator feels about his/her body
love this song.
I think this is about dissociation and feeling disconnected from your body (as was mentioned earlier). I deal with this a lot thanks to gender dysphoria and so I relate to this song a lot.
i think it means that a person is getting bullied for not having a good body and just does not care anymore so when he/she dies to take her/his body parts at least that's what i fell when i listen to it
