Closet Doors (Scholarship Slam)
Location
I knew a girl who felt trapped in this world
she was unaccepted for being gay
they kept putting her down for who she was
the closed-minded saw no other way
she asked why the world was so cruel
she asked why was she chosen to be a fool
and she yelled at the sky:
"If there is a god, why am I in pain?
if there is a god, then prove me wrong
give me a reason to believe
because of lost all my faith
I think I'm better off dead
than dealing with the cruelty of humanity!"
Her family never accepted her
all accept her loving mother
the rest would say,
"Oh dear, that isn't right, so I'll pray for you"
but she didn't want to be in their prayers
she just wanted to be loved and accepted
she spent more nights in her room
only one day to meet her doom
she greeted death as an old friend
she strung a noose, kicked her chair
and as mom barged in
she caught her daughter in the air
the girl screamed at her mom
"If there is a god, why am I in pain?
If there is a god, then prove me wrong
give me a reason to believe
because I've lost all my faith
I think I'm better off dead
than dealing with the cruelty of humanity!"
This is a story of a girl
a story of a normal human being
who got beaten by the cruelty
the cruelty of disgusting humanity
Oh, will it ever end?
she screamed, "will it ever end?
I'm tired of being victim here!
we need to make this end!"
Will it ever end?
can we make it end?
it's time to put the peace back in
so we can make it end.
