I know when I'm loved
And when I'm hurt
I know both peace
And the earth

I've seen the moon
Before the sun
I've seen an eclipse
Before the flood

I've heard of stories
That never fail
I've heard of Moby
And the whale

So let's set sail
Upon the ocean
And learn to understand
Each
Emotion

I know you're out there
As I burn this flag
Represents the world
That never changed

I'm not fighting
I'm running away

I'd love to stay
But I have to go
You're not my family
If you keep on fighting

Sometimes leaving
Can be enlightening

I'll try to take my time
Learn to enjoy the rain
While it lasts
Because your future
Is just the past

Crumpled up
And thrown away
I'll live again
Another day

Is there an earth out there
That's found it's peace
Maybe I'll visit her
Within my dreams

And find the family
Which never fights
I just might stand

On Mars tonight

I'm so afraid
Of what I just don't know

I have trouble sleeping at night
I always sleep
With some kind of light

I'm afraid of aliens
Looking through my window
While I'm sleeping
I'm afraid of an alien
When I'm dreaming

I think they're on the moon
Living underneath it

But if every nation drops their bombs on the moon
They might start leaving
But if we keep on waiting
The earth might stop breathing

The art of war is to surprise your enemies
Even if they're aliens
We might beat them right now

If you think that I'm lying
It's like a bee's nest

If we only shake it
They'll all sting us

But if we burn it in a mountain of hell and flames
Then they might start leaving
And the earth will find it's peace now

So everybody

If you're afraid of the aliens
Then aim your guns now
Every nation in the world
Let's unite as one cloud

Let's get angry
And destroy the moon now

Before they destroy

Us

Courage is
A little fear
A little hope

And a lot of

Love

If you gave me
These pictures
To remember you by

I've already threw them away

If you truly loved me
You'd be with me

Today

But because you think these gifts
Can replace
What you've stolen from my heart
Don't be surprised
When I leave you behind today

If you truly love me
Come back to me

One day

Some people hate
Because they're apart of a group
That doesn't accept
Those
That don't fall under
Their standard

Of normal

In fact
Most of these haters
Are just like you

But they are being judged
For being who they are
But they keep it a secret
So they appear
The same

I love those
Who confess their whole heart
More than
Those who
Keep it a secret

Why strive to be normal
When you already are?

Take a big step back
Take a look at all these normal people
They're the freaks
Because
Anyone who can't be their real self
Will never be normal

Love you guys
But you can't hate
Just because
You feel
Caged

I offer my hand
And so do many others

Leave these fakers
We love you
For who you really are

Come on
Don't live with them

Who really loves you
Look at me
Look at us

We
Love
You

They can't hurt you
Anymore
Than they already have

You have nothing to lose
And everything to gain
You're only losing the friends
That are fakes
Not the friends
That feel your pain

Step out of the shadows
Don't be afraid of being judged
Be afraid
Of never being yourself

I want one that loves me
That isn't just related by blood
But spirit

I want a family
I can trust
One that will support me
Through ups and downs

And if you say you love me
Then turn your back on me
For something
You don't want me to be

Then I don't care what you say
Because you don't actually
Love me

And it's time
We go our seperate ways

Sometimes it
Feels
Like
All
You
Say
Is
That

I love you

And I don't wanna
Live with all this
Hate

That's why I'm walking away
Thank you for the shame

And I want you to love me for who I am
And you're my family
Only if you don't hate

Blood
Never meant we're the same
Just because we share the same name
But that's finally
Changed

You can't be my real family
If all you do is

Hate

I can live with pain
But I can't live with

Your name

You wanted me to be happy
But you didn't like
That I played football

Because I was a girl

You wanted me to be strong
But you never liked it
When I cried

Because I was a boy

You always tried to say
That because I was this
Or that

That I could only be what society wanted me to be

I ignored you
I walked my own path

I cut my hair short
When I was a girl
I wore my hair long
When I was a guy
I didn't care
I never lied

I am me
Male or female

Now you know why I dress up in jeans
And act like a tomboy
Now you know why I wear a dress
And act like a drag queen

The mirror never defined who I was
My spirit did
I knew this
Even before I was born

Sure I struggle
With being trapped
In the wrong body
But that's okay

I was born this way

And it's okay
To be bi
Lesbian
Or gay

It's okay to be transgendered
Transexual
Bipolar in love

We were born
To change

I had always searched for a friend
That wouldn't leave me in the end

Even after death
There is still hope
Even after life
There is still love
Even after you've lost it all
There is still faith

It may be smaller than a mustard seed at this point
But that just means
It was meant to move more than just mountains

And it may take awhile
To find those who love you
And you might have to die
Before they show up
But they will be there
Visiting your grave

Even in the rain

They loved you
They just were afraid
You didn't love them back

Now they know
Now they trust you

Can't you see?
