okay so I cannot figure out Audacity and my microphone is reeaaaallly bad on my pc so I did this from my iPhone :P I hope you don't mind!

Let's dye our hair, And put five pounds of makeup on, Let's all be stick thin, And wear yoga pants, With fake Ugg boots.

We'll hide behind fake smiles Cower behind middle fingers Act tough behind computer screens And date 20 year-olds.

We'll use "You're Only Young Once" as a shitty excuse to screw ourselves over.

We'll pop pills until we lose count And drink until we can't think We'll waste our lives away Cowering behind middle fingers.

In ten years we'll think back to when We had the chance to do something with our lives And we'll wish we hadn't Cowered behind middle fingers.

So maybe next time you skip a meal, cover up those blemishes no one else notices, Worry about what you wear, who you date, Maybe you'll think It's time to stop cowering behind middle fingers And just live.
