All I ask for is respect
I don't get it from the state and I don't get it from men
You take up spaces that aren't yours
Because of history, on who's side?
Oh right, it's always yours
And I just want, yeah, I just want
Not to be needed
Not to be looked at with the menace and the thought of breeding
And it's alright, just step aside
And you can feel my breath
It's your demise
Get spit upon and learn the reasons why
Why can't I walk in the street without men bothering me?
Why does he poison my heart, control my life from afar?
I'm sick of being stared at when I'm alone
I'm sick of being scared on my walk home
I'm sick of being trapped by what you impose
You hear "yes" when I say "no"
One step out of line, and I'm done
Medieval punishment for saying, "I won't make you cum"
Mosquito and evil, you suck out all my blood
I'll crush you like the bug you are underneath my thumb
Wants to get rid of me, 'cause he's afraid
Sickened by thoughts of me taking his place
Refuse to back down in the eye of your hate
I'll push you right back from whence you came
Why can't I walk in the street without men bothering me?
Why does he poison my heart, control my life from afar?
I'm sick of being stared when I'm alone
I'm sick of being scared on my walk home
I'm sick of being trapped by what you impose
You hear "yes" when I say "no"
I developed a second sense
I'm a survivor looking at the light
Pointless ammunition, shameless exhibition
This serves the patriarchal condition
When they don't stop when you say, "Stop"
When they don't stop when you say, "Stop"
When they stand too close on the sidewalk
My clothes don't have pockets and I'm forced to want it
Complain about a condom
I hate you, I love you, it's Stockholm
Not your pretty girl, I never will be
Don't look me up and down, like I'm a piece of meat
I see how you degrade with no shame
So hear me when I say
I'm sick of being stared at when I'm alone
I'm sick of being scared on my walk home
I'm sick of being trapped by what you impose
You hear "yes" when I say "no"
