I felt the tide turn

I saw the mask slip

Became an inconvenience

It was a cruel and brittle trick

I was an entitled millennial

So you ignored my every plea

Felt the world rushing past

As reality found me

9 to 5, normal car on the drive

Normal hubby by my side

As you pass, we say hi

Perfect smile on my face

Not a hair out of place

If I meet expectations

Will you let me live my life?

But now he wants to find her

Downloading Grindr

Looking for a taste of our abnormal ways

Then you run home to your wife

Living a double life

Hidden inside a lie and anonymous online

Didn't I warn you?

We were circling the drain

It's not safe

We'll never be normal gays

Didn't I warn you?

We were circling the drain

It's not safe

We'll never be normal gays

And the truth is, I'm naïve

I thought the world was healing

But the rot was festering under the surface

And my hand was touched only to be slapped away

In its place, a glass ceiling and a sinking feeling

Are you a boy or a girl?

WHO CARES?!

It's only in your face cuz you're looking over there

There's a war outside

They're committing genocide

And you're telling me that I am the threat to human life?

Online is where all your time is spent

Spreading lies about 4% of the population

And if you faced it, you would see that really what you're mad about is that you can't accept your own frustrations

Didn't I warn you?

We were circling the drain

It's not safe

We'll never be normal gays

Didn't I warn you?

We were circling the drain

It's not safe

We'll never be normal gays
