A Day in my Shoes
_______________________________
How about a day in my shoes;
Where it's true I do have something to lose;
My skin crawls, as my mind aches;
To break the laws and decide my own fate;
My self-expression;
The ultimate weapon;
For the supression;
Is bleak and unending;
And still knowing all this;
Not courage nor strength can get me through this;
All I have to do is;
Be me
But you see;
It's not that simple;
For the lies I told;
For not being bold;
Are festering like a pimple.

To break the laws and decide my own fate;

But you see;
It's not that simple;
For the lies I told;
For not being bold;
Are festering like a pimple.
