I'm not sure why I was born this way...
I'm just feeling stuck...
Trapped in my mind...
My brain is on fire from this stress...
Why was I born this way?...
Born in a shell that's not who I really am...
This dysphoria is taking over my life, it's hurting my heart that I never knew I had anymore...
I thought it shattered but it's back, only to be shattered from being trapped with dysphoria slowly killing me from the inside...
It hurts, but I'm fine...
Just pretend, put on a smile...
Don't let them see how stressed this dysphoria is making me...
I want to cry but men don't cry...
Keep it bottled up, don't show it...
DYSPHORIA WHY WON'T YOU LEAVE ME ALONE?!?!
GET OUT OF MY HEAD AND LET ME BE HAPPY AT LEAST FOR ONCE IN FIVE MONTHS!!!

Lucifer help save me... get god away from me, he'll just condemn me to hell anyway...
Looking at myself in the mirrors of my room and the bathroom.
Look at myself for about an hour, please get off my chest...
Dysphoria please go away... let me be happy...
I'm tired of being like this...
I won't cry though, I'll just keep it inside...
I'm a man and men don't cry... that's just how gender roles work...
Why won't my dysphoria go away...
I just want to be happy, I'll just put on a smile.
Cry again, dysphoria finally tears my heart apart, I can't keep this bottled up for much longer...
Give in, just let it hurt, but I won't show it...
I'll just say it to myself, I just want to be me...
I just want my dysphoria to let me be myself and stop hurting my heart...
It hurts my loved ones and it hurts me from it...
Just go away, dysphoria please...
Leave me alone...
