Call Me Louise

This is a little song I wrote
About what it's like to be a boy
When you know the only truth
I really should be a girl

People say be who you are
But they dont know who I am
Try to see me as a girl please
I want you to call me louise

You cannot tell your friends
Family goes much the same
They all know me as a boy
I cannot tell them I wish i was a girl

It is not impossible
To change this horrible gene mix
But I'm scared to tell people please
I want you to call me louise

The whole thing causes distress
Is it better to be a depressed male
Than to be a friendless female
Because they will all reject me
