Names, titles, a useless scar
Sending us back as we've come so far
Names, titles, and pretty words
Burn the skin and split hearts into thirds
And you still think it's all for fun

Gazes, looks, an unnatural feeling
As though, with your eyes, skin is peeling
Gazes, looks, and repetitive lies
To only one skin in this town has ties
Let's see you stand as one

Worries, hate, a recurring joke
A bigger fire in heart this'll stoke
Worries, hate filled with apathy
All of them so care free, but too blind to see
Because you are at no place to shun

Fair, just, a distanced claim
Look behind eyes, and tell me the same
Fair, just, something we know
But when it comes we refuse to show
When you have only walked the shoes of one

Words, phrases, wasted air
To something so wonderful, only to tear
Words, phrases, a shot in the dark
To something so close it'll leave a mark
So take your walk back then o majority son
And I'll sit here, majority one

How unbelievable the world seems.
And how love in it does teem.
For when you look upon me with those eyes.
My sense of reality seems to me, lies.

Breathing, gazing, loving through glass.
Your sense of touch and feeling has no mass.
Breathing, gazing, laughter through wires.
This promise of loving never filled, only tires.

But patience is essential to continue on life.
For when titles are ,friend,lover and wife.
We'll appreciate the wait we so endured.
And love, happiness, and freedom assured.
