Strings

Tangled up
Mangled up
In the strings society has placed on me.

Girls wear pink,
Aren't allowed to think
The strings society has placed on her

Boys wear blue
Can't truly be you
The strings that society placed on him

Silence and tears
Hanging with their fears
The strings they used to cut society's cut their own lives short
