Coming Out

You’ll never know how hard this is-
Being torn apart inside.
I really want to tell someone,
But they just push me aside.

‘Cause even when I cry, you’ll say;
“Don’t worry, soon you’ll be okay”
But the only thing I’ll do
Is push you away.

You tell me it can’t be that hard;
Though if you were in my place
You could see all of the risks
I just can’t bear to face.

I want to say it, hell, I do!
To scream it loud and proud-
Yet to you, all that I am
Is another face in the crowd.

When I’m real sad,
You comfort me
Though there’s a part
You’ll never see

Lying to me, lying to you,
Lying to everyone.
All I want is to be 'normal'
And have just a little fun!
