Pride

Nobody gets to say Who you love Or who you lay down beside Or take for your husband, your lover, your life, or your bride Nobody gets to decide What is for some that others should hide Pride Nobody gets to choose but you Pride in your way In your love, in the day In the hand that you hold In the body from the cold Pride in the hook of your walk In your look In the voice that is calm In the shelter of their arms Nobody gets to say Who you love Or who you lay down beside Or take for your husband, your lover, your life, or your bride Nobody gets to decide What is for some that others should hide Pride Nobody gets to choose but you Nobody gets to choose but you
