And it's prejudice As if he chose to be this way They'll make him keep more than he would take
One summer morning He left us ashamed In some small town of small ways The one they feared They might turn to stone They feared to hold his hand And he died alone He died alone
They might turn to stone... alone
Don't leave them on an island of shame
Your solution You homophobic You coward You send them away to an island of misery You're not immune to any disease I can not argue when the truth is plain to see In your beliefs, your fear of death I see reflections of society We'll take our last breath alone
Don't leave them on an island of shame
Open your eyes It's all in sight Adding insult to injury 'Cause deep inside The truth in lies It's not that blind He was alone
And it's prejudice As if he chose to be this way They'll make him keep more than he would take It's prejudice Yes it's prejudice As if he chose to be this way They'll make him keep more than he would take They like to stabb him in the back
