We Were Taught To Throw Ourselves Away

Under the profane eye
In the steeple of men
That no good God should defend

Woke up in the wrong body today
The secret sacred place
Where will I am to be
Learns to say
This is me
This is me.

You don’t understand and its not my job to explain
I was taught to throw myself away
We share the same pain
(No matter what your so called friends say).

What am I supposed to tell my child
When the body they were born into
Does not let them live the life they would lead?
That they would otherwise consent to leave.
(Dad this is me…)

You don’t understand and its not my job to explain
I was taught to throw myself away
We share the same pain
No matter what your so called friends say
We were taught to throw ourselves away
Taught to through ourselves away
We share the same pain
Shackled to their infantile rage
Shackled to their Infantile rage.
