Behind the Closet Door
Pop spin, Colors of white, green red and purple
Gulp, slurp
A vanishing act, the colors are gone
Silence falls upon the room.
Dear Friends and Family echo’s
Darken Sky ensue
A chill rushes over a small town
A mans closet for storing his clothes was this young girls coffin
Queer youth fight the closing doors
Some grab an axe and others a bottle
Within this closet there is no light, only hands and voices
Some sweet that say we love you
Others shout that you’re an abomination to the world
Some hands are warm and help them up other try to push them down.
Some make it out of the closet and some use it as their headstone
Gulp, slurp
Boom, crash
