Why do I subject myself to
watch this macho shit
watching boys prove
their masculinity
while pushing women aside
when almost every other band
is another white boy crying
about slut breaking his heart
Why am I here?
Why do I want this?
why do I want a part of this fucking boys club
where any word I say against rape
is questioned or trivialized?
where I can't scream about my issues
without someone screaming they want to fuck me
Why am I here?
Why do I want this?
This song is about feeling alienated as a woman in the hardcore scene. The conflict between my feelings of loving hardcore music and despising the bro-like mentality I see at almost every show.
This entire album rips. I've had this on repeated play several times since it came out. I wish I had heard it a week earlier when they played in Boston. One of my fav albums in this genre period. slimes
