(Peacefully) overthrow the patriarchy by outsmarting it...which shouldn't be too hard.
lyrics
You get your news
However it suits you.
So you don’t have to see
What you don’t want to.
Oh, how I’ve tried
To help you see the other side.
But you wanna be my guide
Cus you think I can’t decide
For myself.
You found where I hide,
Yeah, you identified me.
And no you deride
All the things I liked about me.
Well what makes sense to you
Don’t make sense to me,
So you laugh at me
And make a mockery
Of my bleeding heart,
My bleeding heart.
Well what you don’t have to see
Is no matter what you believe
Ain’t gonna change the beating
Of my bleeding heart,
My bleeding heart.
It bleeds for you.
I don’t subscribe
To all that surrounds you.
I know my vibe
It probably astounds you.
Cus I’m not impressed
With what you think grounds you.
Not when you don’t wanna see
Whatever you don’t want to.
So what makes sense to you
Don’t make sense to me,
Keep makin’ fun of me,
Makin’ a mockery of my bleeding heart.
Well, what you don’t have to see
Is no matter what you believe
Ain’t gonna change the beating
Of my bleeding heart,
My bleeding heart.
It bleeds for you.
It’s getting high time, this is the right time
To overthrow you.
Don’t know if you’d even notice,
You might be too oId to.
Well I can’t keep letting you, you’re unqualified to
Keep tellin’ me what to do, yeah all the rumors are true
I should scare you,
I should scare you.
Cus what makes sense to me
Don’t make sense to you.
I won’t make fun of you,
I’ll just stop listenin’ to
My bleeding heart.
And when we take ya down,
And we take your crown,
And chase ya out of town,
There ain’t no getting around it
My bleeding heart, my bleeding heart
Won’t bleed for you.
