The Taste of Vomit - Toxic Masculinity/ Boys Don't Cry Pt1

Since the jump you weren't supposed to bring up your feelings
Abuse passed down from the floor boards to the ceilings
Head stay tilted from these one side of earrings
Hat broke off, am I starting to see things
Walls flyered with toxic masculinity
Couch surrounded by unread books like where the fuck you sending me
Not to play to cliches, but I think I am my own worst enemy
Fuck all the buzz, 'cause, I never found the friend in me
Losing my head like I'm Lincoln or Kennedy
Shots fired from the grassy knoll of insecurity
Dumping fake buckets of blood on your purity
Temper stays the length of your hair cut
And then what, motherfucker we been stuck
Sticking hands in warm water to make your fiends pissed
Fuck around and graduate to misogynist
And yea I know that we can do better
There's more to talk about than sports and the weather
Stick your chest in and keep the bass out your voice
A willingness to be open puts weight to your voice
I wanna rejoice, I need to repent
I wanna convey its ok to blow hot air and vent
I wanna say its ok to not be
There's a way to move passed the mundane monotony
Of everyday life, and its ok to be nice
Its ok to say sorry and ask for advice
I wanna tell all my platonic friends that I love them
Before they're six feet tectonic and I'm kneeling above them
Like why, why, why god, why
Why does it feel so shameful to cry
Why did I live, when they had to die
And what the fuck does it mean to really be alive
Boys, boys, boys don't cry
Reaching for help with your hands in the sky, like
Boys, boys, boys don't cry
Reaching for help with your hands in the sky, like
Boys, boys, boys don't cry
Reaching for help with your hands in the sky, like
Boys, boys, boys don't cry
(Reaching for help with your) ..boys don't cry
