Play us like pawns & relentlessly confine Into living up to gender roles & having absent minds Don't you think it's funny how they tell us how to live? Don't you think it's funny how we're all delinquent kids? Like, hush now. Don't say, don't say. Hush boy, oh hush boy, don't say a word. Throw on a jersey and no one gets hurt. Hush girl, oh hush girl, just bat your eyes. Play our little game, play our little game. Bounded all thoughts & corrected common sense. You're raising suicidals with your predetemined titles Like "a mess, distressed, I am unimpressed, you're excess A dress is all you'll ever be." Gender roles impose control & deceive progressive times. Welcome to the land of the broken minds. Hush boy, oh hush boy, don't say a word. Throw on a jersey and no one gets hurt. Hush girl, oh hush girl, just bat your eyes. Play our little game, play our little game Hush boy, oh hush boy, don't say a word Throw on a jersey and no one gets hurt. Hush girl, oh hush girl, just bat your eyes. Play our little game, play our little game. We feign opulence just to get by. Put on false confidence just to feel alive. They can't hurt me anymore There is nothing left to break of me. There's nothing left to take from me. 'Cause baby it's easy to fake a smile. When you've been doing it for a while. Baby it's easy to fake a smile. When you've been doing it for a while. Hush boy, oh hush boy, don't say a word. Throw on a jersey and no one gets hurt. Hush girl, oh hush girl, just bat your eyes. Play our little game, play our little game. Hush boy, oh hush boy, don't say a word Throw on a jersey and no one gets hurt. Hush girl, oh hush girl, just bat your eyes Play our little game, play our little game. Hush boy, oh hush boy... Hush girl, oh hush girl... Play our little game Play our little game Play our little game Play our little game Play our little game Won't you play with me?
damn you right I was bout the same age too but I haven't out grew creepypasta and I dunno why haha but yes my stoner troll Ben, he's also my favorite boy
I was never in the creepypasta fandom but can we appreciate the fact that Benny was 14-16 when he wrote this and is you truly listen to the lyrics you would understand it’s about sexuality pushovers and gender defindment as in assuming how genders should act, it has a meaning unlike most 14-16 year old kids singing I apologize if I misused any words, still working on my English ✨❤️
k but can we take a moment to talk about the theme of this song. it’s about how society has creeped it’s way into our everyday lives and how it’s took control of our independence. they’ve took charge of what you can wear, how you should act, you’re either a boy or a girl, and you’re shunned if you do anything cross gender. it’s amazing how this song exposes that and the wrongs of society today
So are we just gonna ignore how this song is about being transgender... like everyone likes this song and ignores the meaning... if you look at the lyrics and original video it’s all about transphobic and being trans and I honestly live for it bcs I’m closeted trans and this was my fav song when I started questioning
I totally agree. I read all these comments and i'm honestly sad about how little people realize what this song is about. This song covers a big topic but everyone misses it.
I thought the song was about gender roles and how society forces/pressures everyone into those roles? Not trying to invalidate your way of perceiving this song.
Ah, yes. This is talking about gender roles in a good way- Play us like pawns & *relentlessly confine* *Into living up to gender roles & having absent minds* Don't you think it's funny how they *tell us how to live?* Don't you think it's funny how *we're all delinquent kids?* Like, hush now. Don't say, don't say.
growing up your whole life being taught that you are a girl and has to like boys and has to wear dresses and skirts your whole life, hits different when you turn out a lesbian stem but don't want to put a label on it so that you don't disappoint your parents more makes you feel things when you listen to this song

This gives me so much nostalgia of the days when I used to sit on the couch for hours and watch 20 msp videos with this song only then move onto another song and do the exact same thing lmao
if y'all are wondering about the end of angels of death it's that ray killed herself BECAUSE it shows zack with his clothes all bloody and his seif- they would have cleaned his clothes and his seif broke. so therefore it was all in her head (and after the credits of the lest episode it shows the real ending)
yk if u rlly listen to the lyrics it’s actually a rlly sad song :( from what i can make out it’s about gender roles, how men are expected to be strong, no skirts or dresses, basically emotionless: and how girls are expected to be v fem and girly, liking pink n everything :(
