My hands are tied
But my eyes are open
This modern denial
Has me broken
Nothing mystical
No hullabaloo
Just chemicals
And no one looking down on you
What am I thinking? (If you're so sure it's rational)
While the worlds shrinking? (but that don't make it logical)
What am I thinking? (If you say I'm just an animal)
I feel like I'm sinking (you can't explain away the way I feel!)
You’re just crushing me down
Crushing me down crushing me down
(They tell you 'Trust your head, be like men' but never feel like you're good enough)
You're just pushing me down
Pushing me down
Pushing me down
(They wana take our light, make us fight, but never cry for the ones you love!)
(I'll be your warrior, warrior)
You're taking over
And I'm feeling small
When I was a child
I knew it all
Nothing magical
No hologram behind the door
Just a chain reaction
But I know I'm made for more!

You're just crushing me down, crushing me down, crushing me down
(You wana change the world, but your girls will be seen and not be heard!)
You just pushing me down, pushing me down, pushing me down
(They wana take our light, make us fight, but never cry for the ones you love!)
