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.
