lyrics

you were born yourself alone
with the name that your parents gave you,
it does not agree with the way that society reads you.
you were given a gendered experience,
since your name it provides gendered experience.
the world it is broken in heartbreaking ways,
it is hard to be hopeful in a productive way.
it’s because if you go by they/them,
my god they will judge you.
it’s because when i go by she/her,
you do not stop looking.

it all starts at 15,
when the bell start ringing in my head,
it is called gender dysphoria.
it’s when i know it is not my fault,
and i know it is not your fault either.
when i am in love with a he/him, or a she/her,
it feels confusing to call them that now.
but would it be worse,
to say that i want their body parts?
or that the world should reflect the way that their body works?

the world should reflect the way that their body works.
and my god’s not real,
she is transreal and she is my best friend.
she carries knives into the shower
screaming her lungs out
we sing,
“rest in power”
