ISSUE #12

Juxtaposition

They put the words in your mouth

Spoonfed you shit that made you doubt

Youthfully it hurts, but in about

Four point five years you'll come out

They'll switch gears, but stand your ground

Just live a bit with tears and crying sounds

Then you'll realise it's alright

Their opinions just take bites

And then you'll just cry, cry, cry about guys

If you're like me, otherwise

Yeah, you'll be fine for all time

And keep on living your life like

They wanted

They wanted me to

But I couldn't, and so I didn't

And you don't have to either

You shouldn't

You shouldn't have to

Be dishonest and act all different

That's what they'll tell you though, now it's up to you to differ so

191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGNUaGgKaO

Be that juxtaposition, sister

Make that fucking decision, mister

Be who you are, not who they want you to be

That juxtaposition, trickster

Don't live life in confusion, mister

Be who you are, not who they want you to be

Juxtapositioning

Who put the slurs in their heads?

Making them worse than their parents

Some hereditary curse, don't take to bed

Anyone who's the same sex

Now your love's too good to be given

Because I did

Yet, I was raised parallel to how you were then

191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIor9PQLcF5

I want to be who you want

But I can't deny who I want

I'll only be free if I leave

Have the guts to try, but not tonight

191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MoAIv2nZE

Who put the buzz in their brains?

Baby, you must be fucking jokin'

Others' less a fuss, even a stain

I don't understand this shit

They'll accept "sin" if private

But once it's public, they throw a fucking fit

191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiVDm2xNsV

I wanted

I wanted them to

Love nonetheless, love me regardless

Accept me and look past this

I wanted

I wanted them to

But they couldn't, and so they didn't

So I became silent

191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡii2mcja6aG

I was that juxtaposition, sister

Made that fucking decision, mister

Am who I am, not who they want me to be

That juxtaposition, trickster

Don't live life in confusion, mister

Am who I am, not who they want me to be

Juxtapositioning

Be that juxtaposition, sister

Make that fucking decision, mister

Be who you are, not who they want you to be

That juxtaposition, trickster

Don't live life in confusion, mister

Be who you are, not who they want you to be

Juxtapositioning

191Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwggiOB35d7

I want to be who you want

But I can't deny who I want

I'll only be free if I leave

Have the guts to try, maybe I will tonight
