My Number One

Don't let it pass you by
Just hold out your hands and try to catch it
With me there's no need to be shy
Reveal the machinations of your mind

It's been a while since you've opened up
You've let your inner demons choke you long enough
You offer love and touch, ungodly but still kind
Reveal to me what has been haunting you after all this time

I see through the facade
I worship you just like a god
I've known from the starting gun
You'll always be my number one
Our hands clasped tight
They say we're wrong but it feels right
Until my time's up and I'm gone
You'll always be my number one

The fear we have of others
And their thoughts of what we do
Bounces around inside my head
And makes me scared of me and you
Their belt's fastened way too tight
And it forces out the air from my lungs
And knocks me down onto the ground
Face drenched in tears
There's nothing wrong with who we are
But faith has tricked them into hate
Shocked by what's underneath the sheets
Their sunny skies fade into grey
You've become your dad's least favorite son
"Kneel down only to pray"
He'd rather have his son get killed at war
Than say he thinks he's gay

I see through the facade
I worship you just like a god
I've known from the starting gun
You'll always be my number one
Our hands clasped tight
They say we're wrong but it feels right
Until my time's up and I'm gone
You'll always be my number one

I see through the facade
I worship you just like a god
I've known from the starting gun
You'll always be my number one
Our hands clasped tight
They say we're wrong, fuck them, we're fine
You are my star, bright like the sun
You'll always be my number one
