Gadis : Kita

kita terlahir tanpa meminta

jenis kelamin kita

kita terlahir seperti ini

dan menjalani takdir kehidupan yang digariskan

Lalu diam-diam

kita bingung

mengapa semua serba sulit

mengapa semua menjadi bagian dari

kehidupan yang tidak pernah diinginkan

menjalar hingga menusuk hati

dan kita membiarkan waktu yang mengobati

semua berjalan lembut

mengikuti alira nadi

dan terperangkap di dalmnya

kita sesak, karena kita menganggap lemah dan tidak berdaya

Kita perempuan, hati ini terlalu lembut

untuk menerima segala kesusahan

yang diberikan kepada pria

kita tidak mampu menerima itu

berikanlah kepada para pria yang kuat

Remember how we used to party up all night?

Sneakin' out and lookin' for a taste of real life

Drinkin' in the small town firelight
(Pabst Blue Ribbon on ice)

Sweet sixteen, and we had arrived
Walkin' down the streets as they whistle, "Hi, hi!"
Stealin' police cars with the senior guys
Teachers said we'd never make it out alive

There she was, my new best friend
High heels in her hand, swayin' in the wind
While she starts to cry
Mascara running down her little Bambi eyes
"Lana, how I hate those guys"

This is what makes us girls
We all look for heaven and we put our love first
Somethin' that we'd die for, it's our curse
Don't cry about it, don't cry about it
This is what makes us girls
We don't stick together 'cause we put our love first
Don't cry about him, don't cry about him
It's all gonna happen

And that's where the beginnin' of the end begun
Everybody knew that we had too much fun
We were skippin' school and drinkin' on the job
With the boss

Sweet sixteen, and we had arrived
Baby's table dancin' at the local dive
Cheerin' our names in the pink spotlight
Drinkin' cherry schnapps in the velvet night

Yo, we used to go break into the hotel
Glimmerin', we'd swim
Runnin' from the cops in our black bikini tops
Screamin', "Get us while we're hot, get us while we're hot"
(C'mon, take a shot)

This is what makes us girls

We all look for heaven and we put our love first
Somethin' that we'd die for, it's our curse
Don't cry about it, don't cry about it
This is what makes us girls
We don't stick together 'cause we put our love first
Don't cry about him, don't cry about him
It's all gonna happen

The prettiest in-crowd that you had ever seen
Ribbons in our hair, and our eyes gleamed mean
A freshmen generation of degenerate beauty queens
And you know somethin'?
They were the only friends I ever had
We got into trouble and when stuff got bad
I got sent away, I was wavin' on the train platform
Cryin' 'cause I know I'm never comin' back

This is what makes us girls
We all look for heaven and we put our love first
Somethin' that we'd die for, it's our curse
Don't cry about it, don't cry about it
This is what makes us girls
We don't stick together 'cause we put our love first
Don't cry about him, don't cry about him
It's all gonna happen
