Coming Out

I go out to a new crowd and I feel alive as my heart beats, I know what this is but it's not right
I go back to feel the thrill of what I perceive as a monster, am I just a monster, the very thing that I despise
I come home, she's on my mind but I know that I'm not gonna tell for a lifetime and I'm gifted the man of the right kind
But I know deep inside that I have no choice I was born to love like this and I can tell you right now I'm shit scared of it
Keep running my head, keep running my head how
I'm coming out, I'm coming out now
I go out the front yard where I find my mother, I'm nervous, It's not a big deal but it's a big deal
I try to open my mouth but I, I stutter, I'm sorry, I pace up and down as I trip over my words
She says "what are you doing?" I say "I'm sorry, I just had to tell you that I, that I like girls"
She laughed and I stopped, she spoke so loving to me she said "I know, it's ok I still love you, you don't have to cry anymore"
Keep running my head, keep running my head how
I'm coming out, I'm coming out now
Choke my word watch my trembling hands as I try to comprehend this thing, that I, I'm coming out now

So I've been thinking 'bout the future
And how we're still not living equal
I got my colours in my heart, on my skin and I'm hoping for a change
Cause we're kids younger and the drugs are getting harder
I still can't marry my lover cause that ain't right in the eyes of a dinosaur, no
Now pull me in and lay me down, give me a breath now compress till my heart beats
I love her so but that ain't right, you don't, you don't belong, you don't belong here, no, no, no, no, no
So I've been fighting for a while now and my babies giving up now
She said "I'd die for you darling I swear I'd do anything but I'd lose my family"
So the masses stop and think now
500 million an opinion
Leaving the homeless in hardship and the struggling in struggle
Just to confirm we're suitable in the eyes of the law, oh
Now pull me in and lay me down, give me a breath now compress till my heart beats
I love her so but that ain't right, you don't, you don't belong, you don't belong here, no, no, no, no, no
Give me my rights now
I'm just the same as you
Give me my rights now
Oh I'm still human
Now pull me in and lay me down, give me a breath now compress till my heart beats
I love her so but that ain't right, you don't, you don't belong, you don't belong here, no, no, no, no, no
