 Why should I lose blood?

The science behind it is even worse

Why should I bleed and still run…

Why should I bleed and still try 

to prove to the world that I can be good too…?


They say, “Oh, it's all natural… don’t nag”

But I ask, “Isn’t it different for everybody?”

Why should I still give my hundred per cent 

when I’m not “just” having mood swings?


Why is there nothing that troubles boys?

Why do they still crib?

Oh, is it why they think too much of themselves?

Many things affect my performance 

and nothing which affects theirs, why?


And wow why do I still expect society to be kinder… 

When god was himself unfair.

Why should I lose blood?
