lyrics

Another man who put you in the shadow
called you woman and fit you with a saddle
held you down and called you weak
cut out your tongue so you couldn’t speak

And did they say you weren’t pretty enough
touch up your make up and now you’re a slut and you’re a bitch if you can’t give a fuck
They can’t see you
No, they can’t see you

Hey, just cause I love you doesn’t mean I know

Some days yr in the haze of the gaze
But you play along for your minimum wage
It’s not what you want and you hope it’ll change but you can’t be the girl on the firing range
You’re feeling caged by the nouns and the names
You want to come too but oh what a shame: a girl’s gotta give in this hetero game
They can’t see you
No, they can’t see you

Hey just cause I love you doesn’t mean I know

If I was him that dude that man that uninvited hand well I apologize
Don’t say it’s too late
If I was him that dude that man that uninvited hand well I apologize
I know too well I was

This gender skin is thin
And it just wouldn’t let you
That’s how they trap you in
I mean whomever ‘they’ is

Please take this off.
