Текст The Junimo Junos — Toxic Masculinity

He walks her home at night
She’ll never fear what’s in the shadows
He hugs her goodbye so she knows
That he’ll be there tomorrow

But jealousy gets the best of him
He won’t risk no more pain or sorrow
He cuts her off it can’t hurt
This fake love was only borrowed
He hurts himself worrying about
Things that might never happen
He fights his own reflection
‘Cause emotions give them satisfaction
He tries so hard not to try
A self destructive pattern
‘Cause boys don’t cry

He stays up late at night
In case his friends might need a shoulder
He racks through his head
Thinking it’ll get better when you’re older

He never talks to them
He lends an ear and cries behind the screen

He protects himself preparing for
Things that might never happen
He guards his own reflection
‘Cause emotions give them satisfaction
He tries so hard but it’s hard to try
A self destructive pattern
‘Cause boys don’t cry

And he’s fighting the walls in the dark
And he thinks with his head not his heart
‘Cause boys don’t feel
And men don’t think
It’s the same old cycle
And he’s losing himself everyday
His masculine complex is at play

He hurts himself worrying about
Things that will never happen
He fights his own reflection
‘Cause emotions are a distraction
He tries so hard not to try
A self destructive pattern
‘Cause boys don’t cry
