We Know What's Right?

Snip snip, there you go,
Your precious son now,
Just as you ordered,
Go raise him, he'll never know.
Just as the good book says,
You know what's right.

Standing alone, a dawning
this is wrong, this isn't me
The inner girl, confused and stuck
What next, who can I tell?
Just as the good book says,
They know what's right?
Courage plucked, "mom this is wrong",
You question God, there are no mistakes,
You do what we say,
Because we say,
Just as the good book says,
We know what's right.
You're not validate!
We tell you who you are.
being as we'd have you
That is the only way
Just as the good book says,
We know what's right.
No point in this,
Not worth the strain,
Time to go
A peace to gain
Just as the good book says,
We know what's right.
You can't do that,
Mirrors don't lie
We have the truth
God tells us, we comply
Just as the good book says,
We know what's right.
A life to live
Thus set free
I'm out, I'm good
I am my me
As the book says what
You can keep your right
Your valid now,
The tug of past
Digs the knife
But it won't last.
As the good books says
You're loved, that's right.
