about

I nice little queercore song I wrote about being bisexual. Tested the waters by singing it on acoustic guitar for one friend who seemed supportive but very awkward so, ironically, I left it in the closet.

lyrics

In my closet I keep more than clothes
I have a secret no one knows
Maybe I will leap out and surprise you all
Maybe I will let my disguise fall

Maybe I will come out
Maybe I will leap out
Maybe I will come out this time
Maybe I will come out
Maybe I will leap out
Maybe it will turn out just fine

I'm gonna throw a party for all my friends
And from the start until the end
I'll be on display in a viewing jar
See who looks away and who my real friends are

Maybe they will cheer me
Maybe they will fear me
Maybe I will end up alone
Maybe they will love me
Maybe push and shove me
Maybe they will pelt me with stones

Maybe I will come out
Maybe I will leap out
Maybe I will come out this time
Maybe I will come out
Maybe I will leap out
Maybe it will turn out just fine

I'm gonna throw a party for all my friends
And from the start until the very end
I'll be on display in a viewing jar
See who looks away and who my real friends are
