At age thirteen, my mom knew I wasn’t straight
She didn’t understand, but she had so much to say.
She sat me on the couch, looked me straight in my face
And said, "You’ll burn in hell or probably die of AIDS."
It’s funny now, but at thirteen it was pain
To be almost sure of who you are and have it ripped away.

Everything that happened afterwards was just madness
Locked away for two years to keep me on the inside
Because she’d rather see a part of me die than me thrive.
And it’s tougher when it’s something you can’t deny.
