Autism Lyrics by MTF [Texas Band]

...moths

2024

I’m neurodivergent
I’m not “retarded”
You think you can cut me down with your words like an ax?
Hacking away and away like a lumberjack
Well guess what, motherfucker?
You got to reap what you sow or find another bear to poke
I’m no less or no more than you
My brain is just wired different
Does it even matter how we ever feel?
Does it even matter what we even think?
There are experiencеs that you’ll never realizе
Why not open up your eyes?
Now’s not the time to proselytize
Through a thinly veiled disguise, an unjust exercise
Your fist to my face, complexion brutalized
Your words searing hearts, esteem is compromised
Ego death on high, yearning for the chance to
Die
All because I’m different from you
I’ve convinced myself that I’m useless
But I’m so fucking far from the truth
I’ve convinced myself that I’m useless
After all this painful abuse
I’m neurodivergent
I’m not “retarded”
You think you can cut me down with your words like an ax?
Hacking away and away like a lumberjack
Well guess what, motherfucker?
You got to reap what you sow or find another bear to poke
I’m no less or no more than you
My brain is just wired different
Does it even matter how we ever feel?
Does it even matter what we even think?
There are experiences that you’ll never realize
Why not open up your eyes?
Now’s not the time to proselytize
Through a thinly veiled disguise, an unjust exercise
Your fist to my face, complexion brutalized
Your words searing hearts, esteem is compromised
Ego death on high, yearning for the chance to
Die
All because I’m different from you
I’ve convinced myself that I’m useless
But I’m so fucking far from the truth
I’ve convinced myself that I’m useless
After all this painful abuse
I’m like a moth to a light bulb
Destined to escape the dark
Staring through that window
How I wish to fly with thy
These moths in my heart, they will find a light
These moths in my heart, they will fly away
A moth with its wings ripped away
Taking back what you tore from her
These moths in my heart, they will find a light
These moths in my heart, they will fly away
These moths in my heart, they will find a light
These moths in my heart, they will fly away
These moths in my heart, they will find a light
These moths in my heart, they will fly away
These moths in my heart, they will find a light
These moths in my heart, they will fly away
