i was out by my family’s house, playing near the road beside it, and singing a song i was improvising as i went along. the melody was kinda juvenile and worthless, but the lyrics…
they were something about a boy who was sensitive and atypical, and a plea to understand his pain instead of assuming he’s strong enough to take it. it was a plea to understand him beyond the gender he was placed into.
i think. it was something around those parts. but i knew there was an interesting conceit in those lyrics that was worth developing.
