How Do We Stop It?

As a teenage girl, no one ever told me to not accept it
As a teenage girl, I learned the hard way to expect it
As a teenage girl, no one ever told me what to do

When you see your favourite band and a group of men surround you
And in the crush of the crowd they try to touch between your legs
They aggressively grope at your breasts
What should be a joyous shared
Experience becomes their opportunity to molest

As a teenage girl, no one said I should speak out
As a teenage girl, no one said I could seek help
When I was watching a band and I was unable to fight off his hands
Paralyzed by the shock of forceful attention that I didn't want

Is this just what happens at shows?
Is this a depressing rite of passage for every music loving girl?

All come forward
Come forward
We need to raise awareness
Just because we're at a gig that doesn't mean that you can touch us

Everyone, come forward
Come forward
We need to raise awareness
