My Depression from GRIDLOCK by Cistemic Oppression

Since the gun went off
there ain't no cleaning up
but my brains make a pretty peacock

now i'm just lying here
can't even see my mirror
did my mascara run, before it went off?

My depression
is cis oppression
i need it like another hole in my head
my depression
no direction
I would move on but now i am dead

when will they find me here?
just another dead queer
just add another the fourty percent

I could have been a girl
If not for the world
who buried me in someone else's grave

My depression
is cis oppression
i need it like another hole in my head
my depression
no direction
I would move on but now i am dead

i'm in a grave with the wrong name
another headline, my family's shame
they'll run a hashtag, a memorial fund
that is until they find the next one
(no warning, pull the trigger)
(no warning, pull the trigger)

My depression
is cis oppression
i need it like another hole in my head
my depression
no direction
I would move on but now i am dead
(a trigger warning, if you are mourning, a sleeping beauty, just another dead girl)
