Svalbard - The Currency Of Beauty Lyrics

Reduced to an image
On a daily basis
Reduced to an image
Like we have nothing else to give
Reduced to an image
On a daily basis
Reduced to an image
Like there is nothing else of worth

I am not your trophy
I am more than my body

Not here to be your pretty face
They are worth more than your gaze
Not here to be your pretty face
I am worth more than your gaze
I do not owe you beauty
Let me be a human being

This shit needs to stop
Acknowledge them beyond their looks

Physical beauty isn't currency
I am not more valuable if I am pretty

Not here to be your fantasy
They are not a prize to be won
Not here to be your fantasy
I am not a prize to be won
These shallow things you treasure
One day they will all be gone

Physical beauty isn't currency
I am not more valuable if I am pretty

Does it even matter if we are wise?
Do you listen when we speak our minds?
Does it matter how hard we try?
Do you hear us when we cry?

We do not want to be objectified
We do not want to be objectified

Need to change the way
We talk about girls
Stop measuring them
On such shallow terms
Stop diminishing them
To physical conquests
Stop viewing them
As empty objects

Stop fucking rating us
Stop fucking hating us
This isn't a pageant
And it isn't a compliment
To receive such shallow judgment
To receive such shallow judgment
