I long to be free
A controversy of sorts
Follow my lead
I could use the support
I stand apart
From others like me
It’s hardest to start
I’m sure you’d agree
Alone in the dark
It’s true I can’t see
I’ll give you my heart
It’s true, yes indeed
I veer off course
It’s temporary
It’s hard to endure
Through the controversy
I’ll never give up
I’ll enter my plea
I’ll fill up my cup
And plead insanity
When I’m released
I’ll pretend to foresee
A future that’s bright
But that’s just a theory
There are things in life
That you just can’t unsee
Under the knife
Stuck in purgatory
There’s lies I believe
The time is fleeting
A fool for your love
In 100 degrees
Burning, not yearning
The red of my skin
It’s a little disconcerning
Of what could’ve been
