Born into this mother fucking bigotry
Trying to let go of this falsehood liturgy
Still can't
Yet, I feel like I got a history
Trapping my soul in body asymmetry
Help me
Gotta keep my mind
Gotta my head high
Gotta keep my eyes wide
Brush away everything internalized
Bottled up inside
Pushing me aside
Draining my pride
And, I can't decide if wanna live or die
Look at my reflection
Tryna figure out my intention
Do I have one?
Do I need one?
All I have is tension
Keeping me from my own redemption
Draining my pent up attention
But I'm here and I got none
I just wanna run far away where I belong
But I'm trapped underneath the surface
And I don't deserve this
So far away from girlish
Perfect

When I try to come up to the surface just to take a breath
I find myself sinking to depths I never thought that I would ever reach
Murky dark water
Drag me by the collar
So far underwater
Quarter kilometer to my early grave
And I can't say that I'll make it out sane
Every day got me feeling like a living cliché
When I fake it all the same every day in every way
Wanna take it all away every day in every way
When I look into the mirror
I see myself so unfamiliar
All things considered, I just figured
I could beg for your forgiveness
Cause I've got this affinity for femininity
That you will never take away from me
Lizard brain telling me the same phrase every day
"Must erase any traces of a past face"
I embrace any changes that I might make
When I crave to amaze my gaze for my own face

I can't keep on trying to be strong for you
I cannot keep my head above these rising tides
I can't keep on wishing I could show you
I cannot keep on drowning in this ocean wide
I can't keep on trying to be strong for you
I cannot keep my head above these rising tides
I can't keep on wishing I could show you
I cannot keep on drowning in this ocean wide

I can't keep on drowning in this ocean wide
I can't keep on drowning in this ocean wide
