awfultune - boys will be girls

April 17, 2019



well i think like a woman
i know i sound like a man
but i understand if you dont understand
but its more than a thought
it’s just who i really am
who i always will be
and who ive always been

so i think about the days
when i looked in the mirror
and i saw it staring back at me
it all became so clear
so i wrote all this music
to get my feelings out
but i never got to sing
what i really wanted to sing about

my favorite shade is pink
and its the color of my room
and i colored my whole life
with a different point of view
so i wrote all this music
to get my feelings out
but ive never got to sing
what i really wanted to sing about

boys will be boys
girls will be girls
but dont even think
you dont belong in this world
if youre a girl thats a boy
or youre a boy thats a girl
dont even think
you dont belong in this world
you belong in this world

i never understood
why my relationships didnt work
why i never was happy
or why i up and left just like a jerk
some say im pure evil some say im not ok
but i was just a walking oxymoron
trying to find her way

so im sorry to my lovers
to my friends that ive confused
it had all to do with me
and had nothing to do with you
so now i have all this music
songs that make me proud
but i was too scared to sing
what i really wanted to sing about

boys will be boys
girls will be girls
dont even think
you dont belong in this world
if youre a girl thats a boy
or youre a boy thats a girl
dont even think
you don’t belong in this world
you belong in this world


This is so beautiful and honest and true.
