And caring is fake

When it comes to the kids

You just want to be the first

When it comes to motives

You just want to play victim

When it comes to the women

You just want to be in charge

When it comes to queers

You just want to be superior

Those on your side are sick in the head

Just like you

The excuse that we're mentally ill

Is simply just projection

Because they refused believe that

You were ill enough to get help

Now you're angry

Seeing us get the help and treatment

You needed so long ago

That to this day

You can't bring yourself to have pity

Standing among your peers who can't

See the good in anything except

That cross on top of the building

And on the plain stone walls

The symbol that's supposed to lead you

And guide you

Instead your prayers are tossed in the fire

And your cries are drowned out

The Heavenly Host is made of the voices in your head

And God is speaking to you

Through impulsive and intrusive thoughts

In His name we all say

Amen
