In Between

I see you putting me in boxes
Sticking labels on my forehead
I wish that I could carry on but
It's getting harder to ignore it
Love is love is what I answer
When you question if it's real
I don't quite know what you're after
It's just the way I feel

I shouldn't have to prove it
Just to ease your mind
There's no hidden meaning
Just a feeling that I

I've been in between
I can't win if I'm in the in between
But it's right being in between
And I like that I'm in the in between

To you it's just a dirty daydream but
It's purer than you know
It might be hard to understand but
There's more to love that I can show
You think that it's just a phase
Why do I have to make my case
The one thing that I know is constant
Is it deserves to be embraced

I shouldn't have to prove it
Just to ease your mind
There's no hidden meaning
Just a feeling that I

I've been in between
I can't win if I'm in the in between
But it's right being in between
And I like that I'm in the in between

I can't help but feel I might not be wanted here
I feel like they might love me less for being queer
I've been waiting so long
To open up to someone
And say that I don't play
For either team
I only play

In the in between
Watch me win being in the in between
It feels right to be seen in the in between
And I like that I'm in the in between
