Cast Aside Paroles

Maybe feeling love is a luxury
I hunger for the subtlety of company
The discovery of being touched and seen
I love with reckless abandon
Chest expanding stretch your whole hand in
Core passion there for the grasping
I make no demands of my companion
I cross the line from melancholy to madness
Cycle spiral I feel I'm abandoned like
I ain't valid taken for granted
Might as well be stranded on another planet
I ain't welcome here
Simply tryna get a clear fresh breath of air
They treat me like a creature from yesteryear
Like it's some uniform that I never wear let me disappear

I never understood why they thought I was no good
I guess it look like I was made that way
When I'm walking on this road I feel so all alone and cold
I want a home to chase this pain away Too much to say I can't describe

Hard times in this crazy town
Heartless eyes want to stare me down
They fight corruption with ugliness
Closest thing to justice is punishment
This country is a science project
The old push their hate out young internalize it
The stand-in that passes for love
Possessions and sex and attention and drugs
But maybe if I'm famous I can exist and won't have to explain it
Erased and nameless or disgraced and shameless
Privacy is sacred
Glad tidings to the strangers

I never understood why they thought I was no good
I guess it look like I was made that way
When I'm walking on this road I feel so all alone and cold
I want a home to chase this pain away

Avoiding the eyes of passers by
Tossed away and cast aside
The silence amplified
Too much to say I can't describe
