You make it look like you’re in all the way
You never refuse when I ask you to stay
It’s more than just a bond; it’s a connection so deep
I know that when we’re together I can peacefully sleep
Yet you become so different when we’re out of our room
I don’t like bringing it up, so I overthink and assume
But the things that I assume aren’t the usual things
I do not doubt your loyalty; I know you’re not into flings
You and me, we’ve been called names, but I’ve never really cared
There’re not many like me who’ve come out so bluntly, very few who’ve dared
My family disowned me, but it didn’t matter as I did it all for you
Oh, but it pains me so, when you don’t come out when I ask you to
