lyrics

Strangers stare and they want to be the first to
ask for my life in one word
But it’s not that simple
Why do you care to know
am I a boy or a girl?

But I don’t care about the answers
The questions were boring
Please tell me a story

(1, 2, 3, 4!)

“What did your mom say?”
“What is your real name?”
“How about those drugs that you take?”
“And does your voice change?”
“How come you don’t feel ashamed?”
“What kind of love do you make?”

But you don’t care about my answers
Your questions ignore me
Let me tell you a story

Well, alright
Ask me anything you want to
and I will tell you the truth

My mom is my best friend
and this is who I am
All of it adds up to keep me sane
Yes, I’ve dropped octaves
‘cause I am a mountain range
and any kind of love is good enough to be made

But I don’t care about the answers
The questions were boring
Please tell me a story
