belief system
Do you ever dream of make-believe
Wishing upon something magical
But never to be seen
If I share this with you
Will you turn and run away
Because the love I heard of
Would never go astray
Standing out in the rain
Dishonored with graceless shame
Is there any room in this place for me
The same place you call sanctuary
Beaten up
Bruised & discarded
Look a little deeper and you'll see where my heart is
Maybe I'm trying way too hard to fit in
All are welcome but I guess not everyone
Locked and loaded inside the barrel of this shotgun
What do I do if I don't believe in your belief system
Somewhere far away in a mystical world
Is a place where love is born
For every boy and girl
Accepting and open to everyone no matter their circumstance
But what about a grown man
Who can barely stand
Is there any room in this place for me
The same place you call sanctuary
Beaten up
Bruised & discarded
Look a little deeper and you'll see where my heart is
Maybe I'm trying way too hard to fit in
All are welcome but I guess not everyone
Locked and loaded inside the barrel of this shotgun
What do I do if I don't believe in your belief system
Lost in the world that isn't my own
Desolated far from home
If I'm loved
Then draw me near
Why should I tiptoe in fear
Twisting the truth so that it hurts
Condemning lies with words that burn
Lust of the flesh
Lust of the eye
Keeps me wide awake at night
Got me going round in circles
Holding my breathe til I turn purple
So how can I pray to a God who would only turn me away
According to you and your
B-E-L-I-E-F system
Beaten up
Bruised & discarded
Look a little deeper and you'll see where my heart is
Maybe I'm trying way too hard to fit in
All are welcome but I guess not everyone
Locked and loaded inside the barrel of this shotgun
What do I do if I don't believe in your belief system
Wishing upon something magical
But never to be seen
If I share this with you
Will you turn and run away
Because the love I heard of
Would never go astray
Standing out in the rain
Dishonored with graceless shame
Is there any room in this place for me
The same place you call sanctuary
Beaten up
Bruised & discarded
Look a little deeper and you'll see where my heart is
Maybe I'm trying way too hard to fit in
All are welcome but I guess not everyone
Locked and loaded inside the barrel of this shotgun
What do I do if I don't believe in your belief system
Somewhere far away in a mystical world
Is a place where love is born
For every boy and girl
Accepting and open to everyone no matter their circumstance
But what about a grown man
Who can barely stand
Is there any room in this place for me
The same place you call sanctuary
Beaten up
Bruised & discarded
Look a little deeper and you'll see where my heart is
Maybe I'm trying way too hard to fit in
All are welcome but I guess not everyone
Locked and loaded inside the barrel of this shotgun
What do I do if I don't believe in your belief system
Lost in the world that isn't my own
Desolated far from home
If I'm loved
Then draw me near
Why should I tiptoe in fear
Twisting the truth so that it hurts
Condemning lies with words that burn

All are welcome but I guess not everyone
Locked and loaded inside the barrel of this shotgun
What do I do if I don't believe in your belief system
