my boyfriend doesn't speak for me anymore

hmm

hmm

hmm

couldn't tell you how it happened

did i let go or did i give in?

steady heart

just shaky heads

and i lost myself in my own skin

noisy room and i was quiet

suffocating and i was fine with it

what's a voice if you don't realize

it's waiting here within

so

to the girl just singing in the shower

who shut up and forgot about her power

no

i've never been much of a shouter

but something inside said get a little louder

oh

now

i've got something to say

my boyfriend doesn't speak for me anymore

oh

my boyfriend doesn't speak for me anymore

i'm more of me the further i get

talking dreams through my purple lipstick

forgot how much i love bob dylan

and chocolate ice cream and my dreams

i'm done fighting my natural curves

putting makeup all over my words

it sure feels good to hear what i think

so

to all the girls just singing in the shower

who shut up and forgot about their power

oh

now i've got something to say

my boyfriend doesn't speak for me anymore

oh

my boyfriend doesn't speak for me anymore

oh

my boyfriend

doesn't speak for me

anymore

and i don't care

i don't care

i don't care if he ever hears this song

'cause he'll probably try to tell me

that i'm singing it all wrong

but my boyfriend doesn't speak for me anymore

oh

oh

my boyfriend doesn't speak for me anymore

oh

my boyfriend

doesn't speak for me

oh

anymore

oh

my boyfriend

doesn't speak for me

anymore
