Trans Mantra
I wake up early to get things started
I do my makeup and I do my hair
I practice walking and speaking softly
So it looks easy as if I don't care
On bad days, I take it slowly
On good days, I'm up and out in an hour
The past is over, it's just behind me
It's getting closer but it holds no power
I don't want to know
I don't want to know what they're saying about me
I don't want to know
I don't want to show that it devastates me
I'm living somewhere nobody goes to
I'm speaking in a language nobody talks
The window broken, a cold wind blows through
My soul, a series of electrical shocks
(Ha-ah, ha-ah, ha-ah)
(Ha, ha, ha, ha)
A failed equation, a hypothetic
A woman standing but constructed to fall
Existing as a minimalism
Only just barely as a woman at all
I don't want to know
I don't want to know what they're saying about me
I don't want to know
I don't want to show that it devastates me
I don't want to know (I don't want to)
I don't want to know what they're saying about me (I don't want to know)
I don't want to know (I don't want to)
I don't want to go where the demons breed (I don't want to know)
(I don't want to)
(I don't want to know)
(I don't want to) Ah-ah-ah
(I don't want to know) Ah-ah-ah
(I don't want to)
(I don't want to know)
I do my makeup and I do my hair
I practice walking and speaking softly
So it looks easy as if I don't care
On bad days, I take it slowly
On good days, I'm up and out in an hour
The past is over, it's just behind me
It's getting closer but it holds no power
I don't want to know
I don't want to know what they're saying about me
I don't want to know
I don't want to show that it devastates me
I'm living somewhere nobody goes to
I'm speaking in a language nobody talks
The window broken, a cold wind blows through
My soul, a series of electrical shocks
(Ha-ah, ha-ah, ha-ah)
(Ha, ha, ha, ha)
A failed equation, a hypothetic
A woman standing but constructed to fall
Existing as a minimalism
Only just barely as a woman at all
I don't want to know
I don't want to know what they're saying about me
I don't want to know
I don't want to show that it devastates me
I don't want to know (I don't want to)
I don't want to know what they're saying about me (I don't want to know)
I don't want to know (I don't want to)
I don't want to go where the demons breed (I don't want to know)
(I don't want to)
(I don't want to know)
(I don't want to) Ah-ah-ah
(I don't want to know) Ah-ah-ah
(I don't want to)
(I don't want to know)
