Unforgiving wilderness does not let one rest,
Claws and beaks dripping with hatred,
peaceful birds stalked in the sky and their nest,
All in the shades of their own black and white, unholy and sacred...
Breath held and feelings withheld in front of unentitled questioners,
you dare blame me to wish to be wild and hostile,
Tried in the court of silent stares and put to death by taunting executioners,
All false words of affirmation proven futile.
The innocent scarred by those blinded by lust,
the simpletons cut with words sharper than blades,
the pure hearted trapped and tricked by trust,
the weak beaten with mockery until their belief fades...
Hide! hide your love, it is never to be shown,
Kill! kill your innocence before it kills you,
you are not so tough they shall see the cover shall be blown,
Drown! drown all alone until the hollowness fills you.
They see everything, and they are there to stop you,
the moral police with a distorted mentality is out to get you,
you better not say, write or wear what makes them not like you,
you can live, laugh and love, but no living soul wants to let you.
Come one come all, how many hits do you have,
I am but a leaf meant to fall, have your shot,
till then I shall love with loudness and do what I crave,
for today I am here to listen to your taunts, tomorrow I am not...
