A queer love story in a dormitory
With none of the glam and none of the glory
Seventeen, all elbows and knees
I was not anybody's love machine
He came up prepared, though nothing could scare
The person that I was when he was not there
Seventeen and I took a good beating
All in good fun and emotionally speaking
That's when he said "breathe in"
I knew love was not a sin
But why would I even care?
He had to let me in
But people are afraid of everything
Even when they're strong and bound to win
So when he said "breathe out"
I took a good beating
But it was all in good fun and emotionally speaking
A queer love story, somewhat boring
We both were hoping for something a bit more gore-y
Seventeen and girlier than most boys
I thought I wouldn't be anybody's first choice
He knew the moves, used to drink booze
Why didn't I realize I'd be somebody he used?
Seventeen, clumsy and tongue-tied
Didn't think anybody who loved me lied
That's when he said "breathe in"
I knew love was not a sin
But why would I even care?
He had to let me in
But people are afraid of everything
Even when they're strong and bound to win
So when he said "breathe out"
I took a good beating
But it was all in good fun and emotionally speaking
