Queer Recovery Club
Toxic masculinity's been killin' me for far too long
Not an excuse but it's been used to hurt the
People that I love with the things that I've done wrong
If only my skin were thicker
And if only my balls were bigger
And if only I wasn't such a goddamn pussy
Then maybe I'd be doin' better
Probably not
You can take what's in my pants, I don't want it
You can take what's in my head, I don't want it
You can take what's in my pants, I don't want it
You can take what's in my head, I don't want it
Is my body a temple, or is it a weapon, or is it a workshop?
Or is it a garden to grown in and fight through the
Weeds and the spider mites that keep me from flourishing?
Power, control, and manipulation
Are the basis of our gendered education
There's a difference between having power over someone and
Feeling empowered and the former scares the shit out of me
Out of me
Out of me
Out of me
(Emasculate me)
No matter the gender we have to remember, theres so much to unlearn
No matter the gender you have to remember, theres so much to unlearn
And it's not pretty
Bang bang bang, does a boy become a man?
Or is he just another cog in the man-made machine?
Bang bang bang, does a boy become a man?
Or is he just another cog in the man-made machine?
Bang, bang, bang, bang
Bang bang bang bang
Bang-bang-bang
(Bang... bang... bang... bang... bang...
Bang... bang... bang... bang... bang...)
Not an excuse but it's been used to hurt the

You can take what's in my pants, I don't want it
You can take what's in my head, I don't want it
