I been thinking 'bout me, I been thinking 'bout he and him
Every day I'm thinking 'bout who I wanna be, who I wanna become
Never thought I'd be trans, never thought I could be a guy
Just playing pretend in a game in private, hiding online
Tried using Cole, but it didn't suit my lines
So my sister's got the scissors, we’re crossing the lines
Gotta tell a little lie when I walk through the door
Yeah, we’re telling him I begged for it, screaming on the floor
And the dye was supposed to be a lighter shade of pink...
Let him bitch, let him whine, let him stare at the floor!
When I walk back home through the front door!
I’m hitting milestones, cutting the ties
I don't need permission to look in his eyes
Yeah, I skip the old lines, I just wanna be a Miles!
Never made me cry, never broke me down in tears
I just carried around the weight for all these years
Don't want the boobs, don't want the hair long
But it didn't kill me till my mom said it wrong
She wants it cute, she wants it pretty
While my brain is screaming in a whole 'nother city
She doesn't even know, neither does my dad
But it makes me so angry, it makes me so mad
Sometimes I wanna fucking punch right through the drywall
'Cause they're looking at a girl who isn't there at all
First I thought I’m fluid, then I tried out all pronouns
Spinning in circles while the room is spinning upside down
What’s it like to be a guy? Maybe that’s the real me?
Nah, no "maybe"—pack a bag and hit the highway
If there's no acceptance here, I'm already long gone
I’ll have ran, I’ll be trans, out into the neon dawn!
Let him bitch, let him whine, let him stare at the floor!
When I walk back home through the front door!
I’m hitting milestones, cutting the ties
I don't need permission to look in his eyes
Yeah, I skip the old lines, I just wanna be a Miles!
