Hey you Have you been treated well? Have you been treated badly? Were there sticks and stones on the way in hand That were thrown so madly? Words punching harder than hell Have you cried alone so sadly? Ain't no one understands, it was destroying you Your soul, your mind ain't healthy Man up! Real men don't cry! Tears neglected, fears denied Repeating circles fight and fight No safe place, no lullaby You're an asshole, don't say your luck's gone Dumbness, bullshit reproduction Direction makes no difference Don't threat those who can't defend It's time for a change Hey, your apathy inclines the balance of the scale We should start trying, stop waiting for a change And either way: A hard shift will come There is no difference between you and me What was your age when you first heard this: Stop! Boys never cry? It doesn't barely matter, blind copy of trauma pattern Were you afraid, were you hurt, were you shy? No support and your soul got shattered? Was there no chance of letting out, of crying out loud? No one wants to be afraid! What a twisted mind of state When trauma is passed on and on Fate repeated, faith is gone You're an asshole, don't say your luck's gone Dumbness, bullshit reproduction Direction makes no difference Don't threat those who can't defend Hey, your apathy inclines the balance of the scale We should start trying, stop waiting for a change And either way: A hard shift will come There is no difference between you and me Don't talk to girls about caution, talk to boys about consent Did they tell you: Emotions are something to hide? Were you taught to neglect them and keep them inside? Boys who can't cry, become perpetrators Boys who can't cry, become men that abuse It's time for change: We'll wait no longer Hey, your apathy inclines the balance of the scale We should start trying, stop waiting for a change And either way: We have to open our minds There is no difference between you and me You and me
