[A Verse 1]

Some call it blasphemy

To disagree with what they say

Two choices you will find

To fall in line or fall away

God made the world, one boy and girl

They do insist

The bible says a boy can’t love a boy

No, not like this

[B Verse 1]

It’s forbidden, so keep it hidden

To save my soul, I must resist

God has spoken, that way is broken

No, a boy can’t love a boy like this

[A Verse 2]

My mom calls me inside

She says "It’s time to tell the truth

I think you have a secret

So just speak it

I’m begging you"

My dad is yelling, saying

"Tell me it isn’t so"

And then the room gets quiet

I don’t deny it

And now they know

[B Verse 2]

I’m done with lying, my mom is crying

It’s not a problem Dad can fix

This old religion is still a prison

They say never love a boy like this

[A Verse 3]

I kept myself locked up

'Til he walked up and smiled at me

The heart I had to hide

He broke inside and set it free

And I couldn’t help it when he held me to his chest

A friend was not enough

I fell in love

And made a mess

[B Verse 3]

He had warm eyes, I made up more lies

To pretend that I was his

I let my guard down and poured my heart out

He said "I love you but just not like this"

[Outro]

Time is fading

And I’m still waiting

For some love and happiness

I made a promise but to be honest

I just want someone to love like this
