Closet

I've been out of touch with who I'm singing to
And I've told stories that never really happened
Maybe fitting into so many molds just isn't for me
I'm tired of others saying it's forbidden
To hold hands with the one I love the most
Without hiding away

Because I have to introduce him as a friend
Coming out of a closet I’ve never been in
How can I talk about something they've never lived?
I am who I am and I've always been

I'm not going to reach the end of the road
Following footsteps that aren't my own
No matter how much they don't want it, I'll always be the same
Love me or hate me, I
Won't change for anyone else
I don't want to change for anyone else

Why should I hate myself and fight with who I am?
Just for loving differently
How can a father choose to lose a child
Just for loving differently?

I'm not going to introduce him as a friend anymore
I'm coming out of a closet that never existed.
