I'm learning not to cry anymore,
I'm learning not to care
I'm learning not to take the tags off,
I'm learning to prepare

I'm learning not to play the game,
Everyone else can play it better
I'm learning just to cover myself up with a worn out, beat-up sweater

I'm learning what I was told to love
Is what should make me so ashamed
I'm learning that I'm not good enough
I just don't fit in your frame

I've learnt I'm not an autonomous being
You hold all control
I've learnt I can't avoid your grasp
My freedom you stole.
I hate shopping for clothes!
