lyrics

Oh what a shame that he can just trust the world
Oh with a name and face that he can just keep roaming, endlessly moaning
Nobody shoots or yells, so he never needs to hide away
Nobody caws or crawls, so he gets to keep standing straight, an unbruised smile each day
Closed to the tragedies, quiet when they are prodding at me
Will you ever have to deal with the outside shrill hollering that beats at me every single night?
Opening your eyes to breathe
I’ll keep hoping that one day you’ll believe the raping and breaking of our skins
Hurt and afraid of someone who might call you out
Biggest fear is being seen lost in self doubt
Used and abused by the privilege you’ve known so well
I guess your familiar face will never tell me that you are ruthlessly and hopelessly opposed, so cold you’re
Closed to the tragedies, calmed when they are prodding at me
Will you never have to deal with the outside shrill hollering that beats at me every single night?
Opening your eyes to breathe
I’ll keep hoping that one day you’ll believe the raping and breaking of our skins
The raping and breaking of our skins
The raping and breaking of our skins
The raping and breaking of our skins
