WALK IN THE SHADOWS
How did you feel when you first knew you were different?
How did you explain - or did you refrain?
Sometimes it's easier to live a lie
Than be criticised, or marginalised, or demonised
For something that you are
That you didn't choose to be, obviously
So you choose to walk in the shadows
Exist in the in-between
You don't let your love speak its name
Survive as a shade of grey
Hidden away, hide away
It's not the same
Is that any life at all?
Would you like to hide yourself?
Act like you're someone else
I know just how you feel
