Irrelevant

As a woman with an opinion and the fearlessness to voice that opinion, it gets very tiring when the only retort is to tell me how irrelevant I am. I am relevant because I exist, and because I am a human being. No one is irrelevant. And no one can take away my voice.

—via Press Release
I think it might rain today
Ash on the ground
Took all the heat we could take
And then burnt it down
Now it's a real parade
We're all welcome now
As long as you feel afraid
That's what's it about

You can call me irrelevant, insignificant
You can try to make me small
I'll be your heretic, you fuckin' hypocrite
I won't think of you at all
Sticks and stones and all that shit
Does Jesus love the ignorant?
I like to think he'd gladly take us all

The kids are not alright
None of us are right
I'm tired, but I won't sleep tonight
'Cause I still feel alive
The kids are not alright (Not alright)
None of us are right (None of us are right)
I'm tirеd, but I won't sleep tonight
'Cause I still feel alive

I can't tell thе difference
Between fight or flight
I guess I'm indifferent
Since I don't have the right
I stay under covers now
I'm afraid to go out
I'll wait for tornadoes
To come take me out

You can say that I'm ignorant, insignificant
But I've been here all along
I'll be your heretic, you fuckin' hypocrite
You can't ever catch us all
Sticks and stones and all that shit
Does Jesus know I'm innocent?
I'd like to think he'd gladly take us all

The kids are not alright, no (Not alright)
None of us are right (None of us are right)
I'm tired, but I won't sleep tonight
'Cause I still feel alive
The kids are not alright (The kids are not alright)
None of us are right (None of us are right)
I'm tired, but I won't sleep tonight
'Cause I still feel alive
Oh-oh, yeah

Girls just wanna have rights
So why do we have to fight? (Oh)
Girls just wanna have rights
So why do we have to fight? (Oh)
Girls just wanna have rights
So why do we have to fight? (Whoa, yeah)
Girls just wanna have rights (Oh-oh, yeah)
So why do we still have to fight? (Oh)

The kids are not alright, no
'Cause none of us are right
I'm tired, but I won't sleep tonight
'Cause I still feel alive
These kids are not alright
None of us are right
I'm tired, but I won't sleep tonight
I still feel alive

You can call me irrelevant, insignificant
I won't call on you at all
