Losing your Religion (Losing My Religion)

New life inspires
Inspires dreams
Of how it could be
The skin that I was born with
Was a defect in your eyes
Don’t mean to shake you up
But that wasn’t love

So here’s me with a tugger
Pulling the straps tight, I’m
Losing your religion
I don’t mean to tick off you
But since I learned now that I can do it
You say I’ll grow too much
I’ll never have enough

Just wait ’til I feel it rolling
Can’t wait ’til I feel it glide
I’ll be so happy I may cry

My mutilation
It haunts me every hour
I guess it’s an obsession
Trying hard to still love 
You took a perfect and helpless child
You let them carve me up
That wasn’t love

Consider this
Did you consider it?
No medical society 
Considers it
A good thing 
You did to me and there’s
600 million tragedies
Like me around
Sorry’s just not enough

I thought that your job was caring
Protect me from harmful things
I think I’m owed a reason why

But now I have a dream
I’m owning my own dream

So here’s me with a tugger
Pulling the straps tight
Undoing my circumcision
I don’t mean to tick off you
But since I learned now that I can do it
You say I’ll grow too much
I’ll never have enough
Just wait ’til I feel it rolling
Can’t wait ’til I feel it glide
I’ll be so happy I may cry

We’ve got to share the dream
Why make them cry?
It isn’t just a dream, 
Genital integrity
Dream
