Sisyphus

pushing
like sisyphus
trapped beneath the weight
that’s fucking
each of us —
this is our people’s fate
a million stares couldn’t make me choose this way i live my life
only a fucking masochist would put themselves through this endless strife
the world may say that the way we fuck is wrong
but friction between men is all i fucking want
i’ll be the one to say it
no matter how many times you call us faggots
no matter how many times you call us queers
no matter the number of us you murder for your entertainment
and no matter how many loads of bullshit that you shoot all over us
just know that in the end we’ll all sleep together, one day, we’ll all sleep together rotting in the same fucking dirt
tie me up
beat me down
see my face
punch it out
make me bleed
fuck me rougher
feel my pain
make me suffer

Perversion for Profit
01:27
|

its hard to stay true without “corrupting youth”
everything we touch is taboo, and that’s including you
sodom was destroyed in a fluke, there’s nothing they could do
theres nothing i can do
what did you say
(perversion for profit)
what did you say
(decency is sacred)
what did you say
(perversion for profit)
what did you say
(decency is sacred)
your unprotected sex is the reason for climate change
your god has abandoned you
your entire fucking life has been a waste and you fucking know it
your relationships are inherently unequal
your oppression has made me strong
your continued existence fucking disgusts me

its hard to find solidarity in invisible traits
in a world so consumed by hate
in a world thats so fucking straight
a history built from death
our memories lost to time
the lives of those who passed
devalued disowned maligned
i see you
i hear you
i feel you
we touch
how do i look
what do i say
is this for real
could i be gay
perverted
degenerate
deviant
god’s plan defied
hunky
sensual
decadent
a life divine
isolation as a form of torture?
in seclusion i will never yield

Boys Beware
01:50
|
|||
castrate the fucking breeders
we’ll sign our names in red
this justice we will render:
forced abnegation
as they would have us live
our past becomes their present
their violence we requite
our past becomes their present
their violence we requite
our love runs deep
our love runs red
its in my veins
its in my head
How can I tell you.
How can I convince you, brother; sister that your life is in danger.
That everyday you wake up alive, relatively happy, and a functioning human being, you are committing a rebellious act.
You as an alive and functioning queer are a revolutionary.
There is nothing on this planet that validates, protects or encourages your existence.
It is a miracle you are standing here reading these words.
You should by all rights be dead.
