they planted a voice inside our heads
telling us to hate ourselves and love makeup instead
we have learned to stand within the lines
and check off all the boxes for the things we can't define
we are black and white and in between
and we're bursting at the seams
we stay hidden deep inside
ashamed of our own design
thrown into the assembly line
silence all the voices in your head
telling you to be afraid and fit the mold instead
we live in a cage within our minds
and we all twist and turn ourself so we all fit inside
we are black and white and in between
and we're bursting at the seams
we stay hidden deep inside
ashamed of our own design
thrown into the assembly line
we are black and white and in between
thrown into the assembly line
