Gender Re-Assignment

Unfolding, revealing brand-new 
Defined, arise, the butterfly dies 
Something outside me just has to come in 
Can purity and innocence ever truly be a sin? 

A need to be, a need to be 
An Amputee 
Confusion of gender estranged 
Craving a graven swan, a funeral in song 
All that I strive for, my own personal war 
A festering identity, cut me, let me breathe 

Cut me, let me breathe
