lyrics

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

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


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

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


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
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

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

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
I just want someone to love like this
I just want someone to love like this
