SITTING NAKED IN HEAVEN (OUR ENEMIES WILL NEVER KNOW JOY)

from The Median's Ark by Roxy Radclyffe

/

lyrics

Beyond the most obvious problems with our opposition
I find myself thinking on just how profoundly boring the lives they lead are
Staying so engulfed in the culture war is a one-way ticket to Miserableville
Not to mention the shame-based regression they advocate in the first place

Meanwhile..
We laugh, we cry, we fuck, we'll never die
And sure, the queers aren't without our own fears
But legislation is something that can be erased
The fear in your base is predicated on me simply being the way that I am
And that's something that'll never change
So you literally cannot win!
You must either reconcile or continue letting an icky feeling and a bible dictate your remaining pathetic days

And regardless of your response, I'll still be right here
Screaming, whispering, singing, whatever my message takes on a given day
The sheer prevalence of my expression would easily outnumber what dozens (if not hundreds) of stuck-up fuckheads have ever done with themselves

And if even 1 freak like me has ever felt remotely assured by what I have to say
Then the most beautiful thing has already taken place
Something our enemies just can't understand
Because they have never, and will never, know joy.
