Two people lie

Within the cage that's my body

Can't help but cry,

Never fitting in, always standing out

Can I break free,

Show you who I really am inside?

But then you'll hate me,

When you know what I really am

Love will be love

It's stubborn that way, you see

Still, you'll hate me now,

And right I was, I was right

You say that I disgust you

Is that what love means to you?

There is nothing I can do,

I can only be what I am

You said that I was gross

Is that what love means to you?

So I turn away; your loss

I got someone better now

So take back what you said

"Love has to be straight"

Many a tear I shed,

On that fateful day

So take back what you said

Love can be gay

Your harsh words, withered, now dead,

Has brought me love today

I am proud to be me

Call me sick, call me gross

I am proud to love free

I'm tired of your "no"s

So goodbye shame, goodbye staring eyes,

I don't care, as I love, and am loved

Before you break other hearts, you better think twice;

Love doesn't have to be straight

... alright, this is dedicated to all the LGBTQ+ people out there. I'm there for you!

 I'm there for you!
