PUNCH LYRICS

1. Worth More Than Your Opinion

You probably don’t have to worry when you walk out your door. Will you be judged? Will you get comments? Will you get stares? Will you feel helpless? will you be followed? You've got to walk in pairs. Don’t we have anything else to offer? You only see the surface. Your unwanted opinion is worthless, but not harmless. Our looks, our bodies, are none of your fucking business. We don’t exist for you to appraise, not a compliment, no fucking thanks.

2. Making Room

I can only bite my tongue so long until my mouth is full of
blood. Resentment built into a wall, over which we
could never clearly see. There was never any room to
just be you and me. It got worse before it got better, but
friendship will take us further, than hatred ever could.
I can only bite my tongue so long -
Until my mouth is full of blood.

3. Not Sorry

No I'm not sorry, I won't apologize for salty water and reddened eyes. This doesn't make me weak, it makes me honest. I can't live a life of lies. No I'm not sorry, I won't apologize for salty water and reddened eyes. This doesn't make me me crazy, it makes me human. I can't live a life that's not mine. Undermine me; undermine me, just so you can win a fight. Don't show your emotions? What a fucking life. This doesn't make me weak, it makes me human. I won't live a life of lies.

4. Waiting Game

Waiting game. One more hour, one more day, years go past. A lot has changed but it feels the same. What's around the corner, what's around the bend? I swear that I'll be ready for whatever's at the end. I'm done waiting for today to start when I'm scared that tomorrow is falling apart. I'm sick of starting again, my mind is snapping when it used to end. Waiting for a difference, could never end.

5. Displacement

I never thought I'd leave this place; city of birth. 12 long years, and 6 generations home. But I'd rather walk out on my own two feet than be forced to leave. I'm sure you won't miss another person who "underachieves". Why is success measured only by your shallow standards? I wish I had the strength to stay but I can't bear to see your face.

6. Unconditional

I won't always think what you think. I won't always want what you want. I might not say what you want to hear and I can't always go where you go. But I'll always meet you in the middle, and I'll never let you go.

7. They Don't Have To Believe...

They don't have to believe but they should stay out of my way.

8. Personal Space

Hands off, what's mine is mine. You don't get to tell me where to draw the line. Don't try and take my personal space, use your words or nothing at all.

9. Denial

A secret you're keeping, but only from yourself. Carefully guarded, but only in your mind. Though I scream it out, though I tell the world, you're the only one who needs to listen. No greater betrayal than denying yourself. You're pushing us away, and it's time to push back. A secret you're keeping but only from yourself. Carefully guarded, but only in your mind.

10. Shame

Don't need a bag, I don't need to hide.
I am not ashamed.
The nature within ourselves should be respected, not feared.

11. Promises Kept

Not giving up, feel like I'm giving out. Filling days with empty voices, promises kept, words unspoken. It's only temporary - waiting for forever.
Passing days and killing time, waiting for what's missing. I never needed anyone before but now I'm not sure I can do this on my own. It's only temporary. Waiting for forever.

12. Missing Piece

Though we'll never meet, we now share a name and I can't help but question what that means to me. You're a missing piece but somehow things still fit. What would it be like if you were here? What would it be like if you were always there? I'll never know but I'll take what's left and keep it whole.

13. What's In A Name?

I can't imagine your hidden pain, risking everything for the truth. You lost your battle, but in my eyes you won the war. The only solace is that you were able to live your life the way you wanted, if only for a little while. The only hope is that you felt yourself, if not your best.

14. Anxiety

Heavy as a brick, sharp as nails, always constant, only quiet. Always there in the back of my mind, in the pit of my stomach. I can't make it go away, but I've made it work for me. Don't worry, I'm happy.

15. Self Help

I know you can't be happy, but you won't make a change. You ask me to hold my judgment, but I just want to hold your hand. I try to be supportive but I'll never understand. Help me help yourself. I want to make it better. I ant to ease your pain. I'll do anything for you just help me, help yourself.
