Somber
Silenced by the world around me
So sheltered and alone
I’ve spent so much time in my head
That I now call it home
Seen as a vending machine
Constantly being used
Always saying yes, never no
Is this the life that you choose?
Society hates me, in more ways than one
Hated because of my sexual orientation
Hated by the color of my skin
Nowadays it's hard to remember, just what year were living in
Screaming on the inside, smiling and laughing on the out
Nobody can tell, that I’m crying out for help
