lyrics

Love, how can we live like this,
Checking no-one’s around to see lovers kiss?
Baby, how long can we be this way,
Piss in our drawers, and deathly scared of PDA?

Shaking, I took the hand, I felt the touch
Someone turned the corner, that was too much
Silent, we fell apart; it’s possible
That if they saw us, we’d end up in the hospital

“Son, I love you, but I can’t begin to understand
Would you leave him for a woman or another man?”
“Tell me you’re just gay, you’d make it easier for me
Do bisexuals go to hell or just purgatory?”

Love, wrapped round my torso, and I’m
Combing through the hair of a man
Skeleton’s out of the wardrobe, for so
Long he’s been waiting for a guy to come and take him by the hand

Smiling, I touched his skin, I died the death
Meditated to his chest moving with his every breath
When I could feel my heart in endless torrents of
Beating, I kissed his lips, I felt his love

Some, some get mad
For no reason
At my dissent

Some get odd
Some get even
I just get bent

Some, some get over
Some get better
I don’t get them

Some get one
Others the other
I just get bent

An old friend told me they're concerned with my identity
I'm all mixed up inside but they just want what's best for me
They told me I should be so proud of my endeavours
But they hate my pride, and everything it stands for, so whatever, goodbye

Oh, oh my god
I’m just a heathen
Heaven sent

Some get odd
Others get even
I just get bent

Some, some go straight
Some get happy
I just get by

Some get strong
Some get strange
I just get shy
