"I've always been a coward, And never know what's good for me" - Kate Bush

lyrics

Masculinity never made much sense to me
Images left to make me feel the need
For sexism and greed
But that's not me
I don't see me
In that picture or displayed on your TV
I may be male but I'm not a man
If that's what it means
But if I don't see me
Then why do I so easily
Revert to traits
I thought I'd left behind
When I feel the need
To fit in
With everyone around me
No matter how ignorant they seem
I'm not better than them
I'm just saying
When reality strikes me plan
I'm still effected
By the wrongs I sing about
I wish I could say
I'd left my ignorance to history
I try my best
But I guess I still perceive
The world through sexism and greed
I'm not free yet
But I desperately want to be
Bombarded by it
Forced to benefit
From the very thing I despise
It makes me sick
When reality strikes me plan
I'm still effected
By the wrongs I sing about
I'm not perfect
I see through so many things but a lifetime of
Indoctrinations hard to crack so I'll turn the TV off
'Cos it makes the fool of an easily attainable aim
Lost in the way I'm seen
By a society left blinded by gender
Never able to be free
But I'll never be the man I'm expected to be

about

The Dead Anyways Bromley, UK

The Dead Anyways are four friends from South East London. We play a kind of fast paced agitated pop punk with influences coming from all over the greater punk spectrum. We'd like to think we sound like a mixture of Bad Religion, Dillinger Four and The Lawrence Arms... We probably sound like something else entirely. ... more
