about

There is much talk about equality. This is my two cents on the matter. Take it for what it is, make your own opinion of what it means. Be excellent to each other. xoxo

lyrics

I bet you never heard, the story about a boy, then girl
From the moment that they met, so easy to remember but not forget
She always cried with that look in her eyes, he didn’t know it was a lifetime ago, no
She tried to understand, what makes a girl become a man
Now no-one speaks it’s just tear-stained cheeks
Something deep inside her told her ‘No!, it can’t be like this it can’t be so’
So she pushed it down
Feeling like some deformed clown

The memory that lingers all the pointing fingers
The hate that she wished she could just escape
save my place in heaven, I’ve do my time in hell
Don’t change the world, just change yourself

The theatre of absurd is too beautifyul for words
What don’t bend, will always break
Keeping it inside’s one big mistake
‘They only mean you well!’
Tell those motherfuckers they can go to hell.
I know who I am
I’m no girl now, I’m a man

The memory that lingers all the pointing fingers
The hate that she wished she could just escape
save my place in heaven, I’ve do my time in hell
Don’t change the world, just change yourself
Don’t go changing unless you want change
The only change is I yourself

The memory that lingers all the pointing fingers
The hate that she wished she could just escape
save my place in heaven, I’ve do my time in hell
Don’t change the world, just change yourself
