Change of the Eyes

If there's one thing I'd change

It'd be a change of the eyes

Because I find it so strange

That because of the size of a girl's thighs

A boy could walk up to her and say,

"You're fat."

And she, as a woman, would have to chalk it up as another day

To swallow her pride and scuttle off like a rat.

Or the fact, that a man can't walk with his boyfriend down the street

Without hearing someone yell,

"Fag!" From the safety of his car seat.

Or tell a woman, who doesn't want her baby, that she's going to hell.

It sicken my stomach to hear

That 160,000 kids stayed home to avoid getting bullied at school

And at least 4,400 of those kids killed themselves last year

All anybody will say is "Kids are cruel."

If there's one thing I'd change

It'd be a change of the eyes

Because I find it so strange

That we can't see the lies

That Society has put in front of we

And no one realizes

We are already who we're meant to be

There is no need to brutalize

Because if you changed your eyes you'd see:

All of them are People

Just like You and Me

That can be good and can be awful

If there's one thing I'd change this year

I'd change the way we look at each other, underneath this one atmosphere.
