Did you dare be a beautiful thinker
And make peace with your sin?
Did you dare be a woman in disbelief
Of another man's god?
Did you dare gain their attention
Through thoughts you wouldn't rescind?
Did you dare beguile the masses
And let them reveal their own evil plot?
Hypatia
Easier to want you in stone than in flesh
Hypatia
Easier to champion if you were a man
Hypatia
Easier to love you now that you are dead
Did you dare go your own way home
Across a path that you forged?
Did you dare be a friend to the fiending
Just to lose to their passions for crime?
Did you dare fill the shoes of your father
And then fill them again?
Did you dare conjure up calculations
That made the dark magic void?
Hypatia
Easier to want you in stone than in flesh
Hypatia
Easier to champion if you were a man
Hypatia
Easier to want you in stone than in flesh
Hypatia
Easier to champion if you were a man
Hypatia
Easier to love you now that you are dead
