I'm a good person, I swear
I hold my friends when no one's there
I give my heart, I give my care
So tell me why I'm ****** somewhere
I help the weak, I calm the cries
I wipe the tears from their hurt eyes
I tell the truth and try not to lie
Yet still I'm told I'm born to die
Because a book says who I kiss
Could cost my soul eternal bliss
As if my love is venom's bliss
As if her lips are empty
Because a verse, because a line
Because men claimed their God was mine
They taught me, love was some design
To drag my spirit out of line
They taught me every ache I had
Each broken thought, each season bad
Was proof that I was born to sad
Too wrong, too ***** weak, and bad
Religion took my tender years
And filled them up with guilt and fear
Made every mirror insincere
Tell me, "I deserve it here."
It taught me if I loved a girl
The gates of heaven shut and curled
Like kindness mattered less than words
Written to wound a softer world
It taught me that struggle was a stain
That hurt made me less sane
That surviving all that private pain
Still left me branded all the same
But I am not the sin they preach
I'm not the shame their sermons teach
I'm not the hell they love to reach
Whenever someone lives outside their speech
Im kind, Im human, I am real
I know what hurt people feel
And if their God would burn that still
Then maybe hell's more honest still
So if their heaven hates my heart
And tears soft souls like mine apart
Then let their holy judgment start
Religion made me hate myself
But I was good from the start
But I am kind, and I am true
I've lived through hell and made it through
If love like mine, they still undo
Then hell will have to make me room

She's always happy, always glad
Always smiling, never sad
That's what they see, that's what they know
The girl with joy that seems to glow
She lifts her friends and holds them high
Wipes their tears and asks them why
She puts them first and ignores her pain
And smiles through every storm and all the rain
She makes sure no one feels alone
Though emptiness is all she's known
She gives them light, she gives her best
While darkness pounds inside her chest
She laughs out loud, she shines so bright
A perfect picture in plain sight
But all she feels is hurt and fear
The opposite of what appears
An extrovert, that's what they see,
But that's not who she gets to be
For all her joy is a disguise
Of her broken heart and smiling eyes

You say I lie
But I can still feel the hand on my thigh
The way you joked when I sat there and cried
You say I'm jealous
When all I was was selfless
To spread hate in my name
When you're the one to blame
Your name means pure
But what you did to me, I can not cure
You don't support SA
But you do it anyway
Two weeks I waited
The pain I felt was gated
You grabbed my chest
Now I can not rest
Many people observed
Still, you made her mind curve
She believes you over me
She will never be free
Here I lay in your pile of lies, and here I’ll stay, as our love for eachother dies.
