lyrics

She looked atop the hill
She found all her idols
With faces turned away

They opened their mouth
And out came a shockwave
It shook all around
But she felt most of the weight

On the billboards
In the pink air
In the flowers she smells
Hatred
She'll never learn all the secrets
So men will kill her
And women will spit on her grave

Oh, when you will you learn
That you can't compete in this race
Till you let that man unzip your pants
So he can put you in your place

You are so young
But you're not human
You're not people
You're a burden to the world
You'll never not be controversial

She watched as her mother
Cried in the bathroom
Cause her son had died
And it was all her fault
She knows that it's hard on her
She drinks all this wine
Because it couldn't be hardest on anyone but the mother

This fact that she had trouble
Even telling her parents
And her best friends
For years
Must now be stated
Before every conversation
Before she can meet anyone that she might see again

Oh, when you will you learn
That you can't compete in this race
Till you let that man unzip your pants
So he can put you in your place

You are so young
But you're not human
You're not people
You're a burden to the world
You'll never not be controversial

This fact that she had trouble
Even telling her parents
And her best friends
For years
Must now be stated
Before every conversation
Before she can meet anyone that she might see again
