Brave

Colour me red, colour me cold
Wrap me in black or a snide acid green
Tell me I'm bad, tell me I'm sick
Scream out your hate, be obsessed and obscene

Tie me with love, tie me with wire
Wrap me in thorns and watch as I bleed
Poison your kiss, kill my desire
Deliver me pain, ignore all my needs

I will not change, I will not alter

Staple my eyes, drill through my shins
Gag me with lead and tear out my nails
Razor my tongue, sew up my mouth
Feed me disease till my functioning fails

I will not change, I will not alter
For I am a man and I am strong

Do all this to me, I do not care
Blood is my wine and fear is my friend
Just please do not say I am not hard
Don't say I can yield, don't say I can bend

I cannot sway, I cannot falter
I must be man, I can't be wrong
It's your fucking fault, you and your doubt
Make me like this, colour me man
