I\'m queer.
do I have to spell it out?
Q-U-E-E-R
I\'m queer,
do you hear me?
of course you don\'t
I\'m screaming it from the rooftops
of the cityscape in my head
because you wouldn\'t understand
you\'ve told me you don\'t want to understand
maybe it would be different when it\'s your own child?
more than likely not
I\'m sure you\'d be just as confused by me
just as disgusted by me
you\'d call me it
you\'d say
so you want to be a they
you\'d say
you have to be a boy or a girl
you\'d say
just choose one
you\'d say
I\'m okay with the gays, but this too?
this is too much
I know it\'s too much
I know I\'m too much for your fragile brain to handle
so I pretend to be your pretty little cishet princess
because I want you to love me
even if the me I show you is an act
you love that pretty princess
and every so often I can actually believe I\'m her
every so often I can pretend you love me
