GD HIV |
My name is Michael Joe Alexandre |
I’ve been a queer since the day I was born. |
My family, they don’t say much to me, |
my heart knows their silence has scorn |
My friends have been dying, all my best friends are dead |
I walk around these days, with their picture in my head |
spending my time thinking 'bout the things they say |
I don’t know whats happening to me, goddamn HIV |
And I don’t know what all this means |
I don’t think it means what it seems |
We used to party all night 'til the dawn |
I can still see the boys with their tight leather on in the downtown bars, where it always is night |
I can hang with my friends 's still allright |
I was 30 when the thickness first came |
and it rode through my world like a wind driven flame. |
Leaving ashes, memories, funerals and pain |
and I don’t know what’s happening to me, goddamn HIV |
And I don’t know what all this means |
I don’t think it means what it seems |
When I was a boy I get scared at night |
My momma would come, turn on the light |
But there’s nobody here with me tonight |
and I don’t know what’s happening to me sometime at dusk I walk the train track |
and I walk and I walk but I ain’t coming back |
I look at the sky so endless and black |
men I swear its swallowing me goddamn HIV |
