Our "happy" little world


In this world you can't love who you want

because it's a "sin"

but they can call you whore

In this world you can't be who you want

because it's "weird"

but they can act however they want to

In this world you can't smile when you want

because it's "ugly"

but they smile whenever and where ever

In this world you can't dress how you want

because you'd be a "hoe"

but they can wear barely nothing and it's okay

In this world you can't eat when you want

because you're "fat"

but they eat and laugh and smile whenever they want
