its the life i didn't choose

you keep sayong i choose to be this way

then there are the mean words you say

if i had the choice i dont know what i would do 

but i wouldnt change it for you

 

dont get me wrong i love who i am,  but its what you see

the way you see is what hurts me

i remember the day we were friends

why did that day have to end

 

you hate me because of who i like

now to get my attention you always say dyke

the hateful words come from all around 

it'll be funny until im in the ground 

 

but until that day 

repeat the words you always say

i'll down the pain with a bottle of booze 

and remember this  is the life i didnt choose 

 

i dont feel bad for loving my girl

but what hurts is when you say it makes you want to hurl

who i love doesnt define who i am 

but to you that all  that can 

 

but remember every word

ever swing of the hate sword

but ill just down it with a bottle of booze

and remember this is the life i didnt choose
