Chalkline
We see the billboard girl
The one devoted to ritual
Standing in the rain
Holding all her pain inside
I know you're hurting now
But I can't point my finger at the
Words I should or shouldn't say
Anything to take the pain away
Walk alone on the streets at night
And fear nothing
Choose to love what we are in this life
And shine brighter
Don't let the crosses and dollar signs
Symbols of man-unkind
Make you feel that you're not real
All this time, walk out
Out of the shadows
Go!
We see the lines in chalk
The warning sign for where we walk
The shadows of the city's maze
Try and fight for better days
Walk alone on the streets at night
And fear nothing
Choose to love what we are in this life
And shine brighter
Don't let the crosses and dollar signs
Symbols of man-unkind
Make you feel that you're not real
All this time, walk out
Out of the shadows
Yeah, we're ungrateful
Yeah, we're ungrateful for
Holy books, religious men
The values of beauty, original sin
And all this time, we unwind it
I won't give up! I'm not afraid!
Resist the call, as long as it takes
Reverse the hypocrisy and challenge the stakes
Of safety, survival, and the heart
Of women's voices, of women's art
Just walk alone on the streets tonight
And fear nothing
We get to choose to love what we are in this life
All that matters
Don't let the crosses and dollar signs
Symbols of man-unkind
(I won't give up!)
Through all this time, walk out
Out of the shadows
If we take our strength
To market, to trade
For their ugly beauty
Watch us grow up to war
Watch us grow up to war
Watch us grow up to war
Watch us grow up to war
Watch us grow up to war
No more!
