I would give anything for adventure if you would give everything for love.

Scapegoat

Scapegoat by Supernova-Exploding

With arms wrapped round myself
Desperately mimicking a hug
Looking for something to blame
It was the racism, the violence
in that awful divided city
It was the mental health system
that failed to meet your needs
It was a lifetime of walking lines
between ethnicity, sexuality,
gender, and family
Never fitting in
I'm looking to blame the world
that you never belonged in
I'm looking to blame the world
that I can't blame you
for choosing to leave.
