The Backyard - A song by me
The Backyard - A song by me
On May 4th, 2014 I came out to my parents and they threw me out of the house. Yesterday I performed this song I wrote about my mother about one year ago (pretty much anticipating the situation). Hope people can relate.
Would love for Gaga to see this and send me support.
Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
You can set the noose on the rooftop
You'll still be beautiful to me
Cause my life, it is, a seed of your soul
I'll forever shade you like our backyard trees
When you held me tight, there was no deal there
It was true, your heart held no bargains
And now as I, grow taller, closer to the light
You feel that I choose to sin
[Bridge]
We took photos in the backyard
And you loved me there
The boy by the pink bush
With his smile and curly hair
[Chorus]
It's a shame that you'd let him go
But he promises, your love is what he'll know
I understand it's hard
If I go, I'll rest in the backyard
When I'm gone, At least I could sleep in the backyard
[Verse 2]
We'd swim in the pool and you'd smile from the window
You shined down, at your beloved son
You'd laugh, discussing this place and it's rascals
You never thought I'd be the one
That smile of yours, it's been 18 years now
I see it at least once a day
I'd lose all these rascals and forget all this sinning
Before I'd take that away
[Bridge]
[Chorus]
