“Girls get screwed.
Not that kind of screwed, what I mean is, they're always on the short end of things.

The way things work, how
guys feel great, but make girls feel
cheap for doing

they beg for.

The way they get to play you,
all the while claiming they
love you and making you
believe it's
true.

to move on to the apricot
when the peach blushes and bruises.

These things make me believe God's a man after all.”
