lyrics

Thou told me too loud.
Thou told me to wait.
Thou told me to ask them.
Thou told me not yet.


Thou told me I would never.
Thou told me I would fail.
Thou told me there has never.
Thou told me many times.
Thou told me too fat.
Thou told me not to sit like that.
Thou told me to show more of my breast.
Thou told me to just say yes.

Thou told me I was dressed too naked
and too cold.
Thou told me I looked like a boy and needed to smile more.


Thou told me I was weak.
Thou told me I should not speak.
Thou told me to follow
Thou told me to go.
Thou told me not to care.
Thou told me hide.
Thou told me stop crying.
Thou told me you’re so emotional.

Thou told me I was dreaming.
Thou told me it was all just a dream.
Thou told me I was not making any sense.
Thou told me my truth was no defense.


Thou told me to fit.
Thou told me misfit.
Thou told me to look away.
Thou told me to stay, stay quiet.

Thou told me not to feel.
Thou told me not to be.
Thou told me not to play.
Thou told me not to speak.
