Verse 1: play intro 4x

We see the billboard girl
the one devoted to ritual
standing in the rain
holding all of 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 tonight
and fear nothing
Choose to love what we are in this life
and shine brighter
don't let the crosses and dollar signs
the symbols of man unkind
make you feel
that you're not real
all this time walk out
out of the shadows

repeat Intro

Verse 2: repeat intro 2x

we see the lines in chalk
the warning sign for where we walk
in the shadows of the cities maze
to try and fight
for better days

repeat chorus

yeah we're ungrateful

holy books, religious men
values of beauty, original sin
all this time we unwind it
i won't give up, i'm not afraid

Resister go
as long as it takes

at the heart
of women's voices
women's art
