My axis is trenched
This body in the night
Another male hero done in
When the light shines down
You'll be able to see right through me
Another man about of humiliation
Even though I appeared in a cloud of smoke
It's part of my own mythology
I consider my speech to your needs
Imagine if the history books
Have all been written by women
You're still obsessed
From birth to death
With the same three topics that taunt you
I consider these things to your beliefs
Imagine if the history books
Have all been written by women
You can think of the slants
That they could've been given
I consider my speech to your needs
Imagine if the history books
Have all been written by women
Makes you think of the slants
That they could've been given
Must be tied into war
That win a boyish tuition
Imagine if the history books
Have all been written by women
