I tried to keep a steady hand Tumble blocks, start again I held your side when you let go And you came back well-rehearsed In holding your own A broken seal, a past self known Retrieve my heart from the Alamo I need it here to touch your skin Reconfigure, deconstruct, and begin The centers shrunk between your eyes. Sharper corners, broader sides And I felt weak in woman's wear Genderfucked, dilated, stuck holding a stare You taught me how to guard myself To keep my heart unscathed in health I think you got carried away Reached out your hand It carried you away
Well, it's life in drag Well, it's life in drag You wore an armor that covered your face (It's life in drag) I wore hands high to show truce and embracing (It's life in drag)
Who taught you how to hate yourself? Who forced you to confide in spell? Mistook 'pathetic' for empathy Cast a stone at the foe and the stone hit me And I held your hand in ritual to show disarming While you were a weapon inside yourself, inside your body
