Don't Look Down

Why does life have to be so freaking confusing?
It's like every battle I fight, I'm losing.
I don't know the path I'm supposed to be choosing.

It seems like I'm slowly losing my grip.
The world's spinning, I'm still, in a constant back flip.
Tears gathering in my eyes, the shaking of my lip.

Do my eyes reveal these crazy emotions I feel?
The wounds that have been unable to heal.
Thinking back, this couldn't possibly be real.

I know I've found my soul mate, she's the only one.
So why does this stress seem to weigh a ton?
Sometimes all I want to do is run.

Wearing her jacket, the smell of her lingering there
And it makes me even more sad, more to bear.
The connections in my brain are starting to tear.

Why look down on us, just because we're gay?
If it was a choice, it's not a game we'd play.
Do they think we'd want to be looked at this way?

Why does life have to be so freaking confusing?
It's like every battle I fight, I'm losing.
I don't know the path I'm supposed to be choosing.
