Too much to ask..

Why can't you just realise
That this is who I am?
You're pulling me down so much
Why can't you just understand?

Do hate me because I'm gay?
Or because I hate school?
Or is it because I wanna be
Something other than you?

I just want to be me
Is it too much to ask?
Just let me deal I'll be fine
Or is that too big of a task?

I used to wanna make you proud
But I think I'll have to give up
You're asking me to be someone else
And that is just too much

I thought we wouldn't be like this
I thought we'd never fight
But I guess we'll just go our separate ways
And just try and get through the nights
