lyrics

Hang on, silly boy
You can't love who you want to
You don't have a choice
The Holy Ghost will haunt you

Did you tell it to your mother?
She didn't want to know the truth?
Did you disappoint your father?
Was it devastating news?

Well now, selfish boy
They were relying on you
The dreams you destroyed
It is defiant of you

What about that pretty girl in your class?
She doesn't mean a thing to you?
It's that boy with the beautiful eyes
That makes your heart go boom

You try so hard to fight it
Lie so hard to hide it
All the things you keep inside you
Be who you want to be
See who you want to see
Why be afraid of it too?

Go on, pretty boy
Your years are waiting for you
Let go and enjoy
Their tears are wasted on you

Free yourself from their delusion
From their twisted point of view
Turn your back on their confusion
You know what you have to do
