about

A song about identity and gender in particular

lyrics

A F#m E D

Hello, I changed my name
I dyed my hair and took the blame
For everything that I have ever done
I tried to change myself for me
So I could finally feel free
In a world that's tried to trap me as its son

Hello, I changed my style
So it would finally be mine
Rather than being someone I don't wanna be
Instead of hurting anyone
I just sat in my room alone
Because now I know this world's not meant for me
This world’s not meant for me

Hello, it’s 2 am
I just thought I’d call again
You see, I’m nervous and I’m shaking and I’m scared
And my fear has manifested
Into words that I confessed to you
Because now i see that life’s not fucking fair
Life’s not fucking fair

So I wrote another song
About all that I did wrong
And the way that I’ve been killing all my cells
With generic punk rock lyrics
And a whole fuckin lot of spirit
And just enough anger to get us through this hell

And oh, I was wondering if this was me
A teenage alcoholic that’s not getting a degree
And a misanthropic asshole that’s controlled by bpd
With a dysphoric brain and body that don’t agree
Cause I can’t fake my gender or my identity
I did this to get better, I did this to be free
I’ve already burned the forest, I’ve already killed the trees
But I’m looking for redemption, can’t you see?

Acoustic yelling into the void about whatever incoherent thoughts may cross my mind, with themes of broken homes, destructive forces clashing against one another, and the inevitable demise of the earth as we know it.
