Robyn McCloud Mar 2021
Wish I could magically wake up somewhere
As a pretty woman with better hair
Leave behind this place and it’s hateful trends
Never hear my old name again

I wanna shed who I was like a skin
Purge the old influences
Give my nice new dress a spin
Never hear my old name again

But I’m not sure what this is
So how can I fight for it?
But I’m not sure what this is
How do I even fight for it?

I know I could stand up for someone
Lose bits of flesh and tooth and blood
But when it comes to me I can’t speak up
I start trembling and I shut up

— The End —
