Wrote this the other day finished it yesterday
Sometimes I can’t get you outta my head
Sometimes I can’t get you outta my head
Sometimes I wish that I was dead
Why couldn’t I have been a normal boy
Playing with scalelectric and manly toys
Watching the girls in the playground
You can’t pick flowers that’s out of bounds
Sometimes I can’t get you outta my head
Sometimes I wish that I was dead
Wanting to dress up and do handstands
You can’t do that - cos your gonna be a man
Yearning to put make up on my face
told to be quiet and to know my place
Sometimes I can’t get you outta my head
Sometimes I wish that I was dead
to anyone who thinks Katie’s a game
If it wasn’t for her I’d be insane
Wanting to look pretty and to play with dolls
now it’s too late cos I’m too old
Wanting to dress up and do handstands
You can’t do that - cos your gonna be a man
Sometimes I can’t get you outta my head
Sometimes I wish that I was dead
wanting to be a girl all my life
Left with scars like cuts from a knife
Fades
Sometimes I can’t get you outta my head
Sometimes I wish that I was dead
Sometimes I can’t get you outta my head
Sometimes I wish that I was dead
Sometimes I can’t get you outta my head
Sometimes I wish that I was dead

Great lyrics Katie. The model in my life drawing session last week was a woman in a male body, and I felt like I understood her a little better from reading your words. I know everyone's story is different, but I saw the way she was treated and it pissed me off.
Stay strong. Times are changing. You are Katie.
