• • • The World is Against Us • • •

   → We've always been a pair

A thing one to my two

It's never been a question

I've always loved you

Our love is pure

Brightly colored and free

But now the world is against us

They're against you and me

If I kissed you, my dear

I'd never hear the end of it

If we wanted to hold hands

Everyone would be offended

But I love you

I do; with all my heart

Too bad people hate us

Like a form of hateful art

My love, you're a man

Whose smile is carefree

Since I am male too

We're considered filthy

Society half agrees

On behalf of our ways

Though the other side sneers

And laughs at our pain

Because I love you,

And your precious smile

I'll marry you anyway

Even if I have to walk 6,000 miles

You are my heart

The light of my life

So no matter who kicks us

While were down and depressed

I'll walk down the aisle

And guess what?

No dress!

But simply not caring

Isn't enough to hide it all

These days slander is refined

Painted on school stall walls

To love you it is risky

A risk only I would take

But losing you

Would be far worse

Like some sort of twisted

Fate . . .

And it seems that everyone

We know is concerned

About what we do

When the lights are off

And I'm pressed against you

My eyes tear up

When I think of the way

You're treated

Because my love,

Although it is tough

I never wanted it this way. . .

I want you to smile

And to be romantic publicly

But when I'm by your side

We have to hide our passion

Petals drifting in the

Breeze

I wish that the wind would

Pick us up

And throw us far from here

So I could caress your beautiful

Body

And kiss you from the toes

To the tip top

But “God hates fags”

And “Gays are sinners”

Even if I left you

I'd only crumble and

Wither

Away . . .

So why should I follow

These horrible, biased laws?

Isn't this the country

Where there is no

Church mixed in Law?

I hate this pain

It wounds me, via stake

It wraps its

Cold, bony claws

Around my heart

Squeezing until I

Fall

    → But in a world

Where heaven lies

It's inevitable that

My love is testified

Because our genders are the same

We obviously feel nothing

We're heartless sinners

In the eyes of Christ

I really doubt any book

Has gotten that right

It was written by man

Descended from a God

He tells us how to live

But is it even right?

Pledging our existence

To someone else

Who was never there when

We fell down?

Am I crazy, or am I

Only rambling?

I'm not sure

Is this only a dream?

I'm sorry that the world

Hates our passion

But if your smile

Keeps on flashing

I won't even be unhappy

You've got my back . . .
