“Matthew make me mean
Make me holler and scream
Make me make a scene
While the sky goes dark
Matthew make me joy
Make me a real fun toy
Make me fight and spoil
All your boyhood sparks
But I don’t wanna play this game anymore!
Let me go, let me be
Let me go alone, let me megaphone all the lies you told
If I stay, if I play
I will waste away, and won’t see a day
Of what’s really me
What’s really me?
What’s really me?
What’s really me?
Matthew make me nice
Make me tumbling dice
Make me pay the price
For love gone wrong
Matthew make me sad
Make me feel so bad
Make me stumble and scrap
All your lover’s songs
But I don’t wanna play this game anymore!
Let me go, let me be
Let me go alone, let me megaphone all the lies you told
If I stay, if I play
I will waste away, and won’t see a day
Of what’s really me
What’s really me?
What’s really me?
What’s really me?
Matthew make me change
Make me feel so strange
Make me see the state
Of this war, holy
Matthew make me real
Make me writhe and feel
Make me sense and see
What’s really me,
What’s really me,
What’s really me…” – Megan Marie Seaman
