Pretty in Pink (Isn’t He)
Christopher cries, he’s been lonely all day
Wishing he was just one of the guys
He exists on his own the back of the room
Where his surroundings always seem straight
He walks away scared often hiding his eyes
Tired of being the butt of the joke
He dreams of a world where he feels he belongs
And his voice can be heard in a room
He's pretty in pink, isn’t he?
Pretty in pink, isn't he?
His peers talk about all the secrets he keeps
And they laugh at the lies that he lives
It’s just so easy
Isn't he pretty in pink?
No one is there for him as he withdraws
Or if they even know him by name
It’s safer to live in the shadows alone
Protected from unwanted blame
Christopher has spoken inside to himself
About loving the man that he is
Wondering how he will win at this game
And decides that today is the day
He walks out the door and embraces his light
Standing taller than he had before
He is learning to change his perspective on life
And is no longer hiding his eyes
He always feels his heart is screaming
The confidence has come and gone
All his hopes are in his hands
And wrapped around his outstretched arms
Wishing for his soul to fly
To grow the wings and soar so high
Having faith that life can change
By not giving in to run
And everything he wants is
So beautiful and important
To push him out of the comfort zone
And cause that change to start
And you know how hard it is
To make the life that we want to live
Find the strength inside yourself
By doing it
But you’re not alone

Don’t Tell Me What Not To Say
Pervert - Disrupt - Contort - Corrupt
Thought I'd never make the jump without you
Would I ever find the strength to break through
Will I never find words that sound true
Could I ever fight the fight that I knew
But I do
Did you think that it could get this far
Never didn't tell me who you are
Gonna make it out another way
So don't tell me what not to say
Did you want to move in for the kill
Never meaning for my blood to spill
Gonna live to see another day
Don't tell me what not to say
Thought I'd never win the game without you
Would I brave to cross that line that's taboo
Will my empty soul take the toll to renew
Could I break these shackled bindings in two
But I do
And I’ve learned and have earned that my back can be turned
Now the world is unfurled and the bridges are burned
Feel I’m rising on fire with a high that is new
I’m allowed to be loud and I’ll kick the wall through
And I do
