i can't change my heart

same for you

can we please just get over this

before we ruin the whole world too?

it's not necessary,

it's not fair

don't hide your feelings

let them float through the air

the spirit of goodwill

can touch us all

maybe then

we'll learn how to sing

a different song

one where we're embraced

for who we are

one where nobody

is left with scars.
