In a system based on inequality where do you draw
the line

Between fighting to stop oppression and
perpetuating the same crime

When you start to define anyone simply based upon
their gender

They you're guilty of the crime and wan equally
wrong offender

It makes life easy to force people into simple
categories

You're a man, you're a woman isn't that the same
old story

And as a man society has mapped out exactly what
you must do

Just as society has told all women what their
roles are too

Too many times we think fighting sexism means
creating a battlefield

With men on one side and women on the other and
both sides ready to kill

But striving to find creative solutions to a
problem that exists

Doesn't have to mean that it's her side against
his

Can't you see, won't you see, why don't you
see that I'm the problem?

Can't you see, won't you see, why don't you
see that you're the problem?

Can't you see, won't you see, why don't you
see that we're the problem?

Isolation or solution to the problem

A person's ability to fight sexism shouldn't be
based on gender

Just because someone is a man doesn't mean he's a
sexist oppressor

Or that he's blind to the problems that create
gender inequality

And that he's blind to the problems that create
gender inequality

And that he's not willing to do his part to help
change society

Just as some women don't know exactly how to take
a stand against gender roles

Simply because they're a woman doesn't mean they
have all the knowledge and the tools

To break down the barriers of oppression and
inequality that exists

Because it's the barriers between women and men
that allows sexism to persist

Can't you see, won't you see, why don't you
see that I'm the problem?

Can't you see, won't you see, why don't you
see that you're the problem?

Can't you see, won't you see, why don't you
see that we're the problem?

Isolation or solution to the problem

If you don't strive to stop oppression then
you're part of the problem

Whether you're a man or a woman it'll take us all
to fucking stop them

Men and women both suffer under he heavy hand of
oppression

Both living gender roles that only lead to this
suppression

Of our natural ability to communicate and live
equally with each other

As a friend or a lover, as a sister or a brother

If our only goal in fighting sexism is to try and
place blame

Then unfortunately we're all guilty of playing
the same games

But if in unity women and men come together and
take a stand

Then with our united goal we could bring sexism
to an end

Can't you see, won't you see, why don't you
see that I'm the problem?

Can't you see, won't you see, why don't you
see that you're the problem?

Can't you see, won't you see, why don't you
see that we're the problem?

Isolation or solution to the problem
