Born A Girl, lyric by Manic Street Preachers

from the songs album This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours

Do i look good for you tonight
Will you accuse me as i hide
Behind these layers of disguise
In the mirrors of my own happiness

I've loved the freedom of being inside
Need a new start and a different time
Something grows in the space between me
And it's twisting and changing this fragile body

And i wish i had been born a girl instead of what i am
Yes i wish i had been born a girl and not this mess of a man
And not this mess of a man
And not this mess of a man

The censorship of my skin
Is screaming inside and from within
There's no room in this world for a girl like me
And place around there where i fit in

And i wish i had been born a girl instead of what i am
Yes i wish i had been born a girl and not this mess of a man
And not this mess of a man
And not this mess of a man
And not this mess of a man
And not this mess of a man
