I didn’t have a chance
To be loved for myself
To play like a girl
A boy or an elf
I wanted love
Love and attention
Someone for me
Who wouldn’t mention
What they needed
For themself
Love, love
Love was denied me
Now I’m finding it
Within and without
I’m surrounding myself
With love and attention
So all of my truth
Can let itself out
Thanks for listening
Listening to me
I know it’s not over
There’s pain in my neck
Please  please please (please just listen)
I’m not finished singing yet.
