HOLDING HANDS ALONE
By Meredith Newton
It was Christmas Eve
I was all alone, a bottle of gin as my friend
I thought of the life I’d lost
And the one I’d found
I’m not welcome in the first because of the other
Just looking for a home
My best friend turned her back on me
She said God didn’t make me this way
She said I can be cured
She said don’t see her
She used to be a source of strength, but not anymore
The only friends who understand me
Live so far away
And I can’t even call them on the phone
No money, no job, no way to get by
Can’t even dress to go to the corner store
Brandi Rose is a good friend of mine
She was hurt by someone she once thought she loved
She’s doing fine now with some way to go
They think her ex is a hero
For defending George Bush’s lies
Brandi is just like me
Since when did Heaven ever want us
We’re holding hands alone
I don’t want to wear these clothes anymore
How much longer until I change this body I’m in
I’m sorry if I hurt anyone
I wasn’t trying to lie to you
But would you ever understand
Would this make sense to you
Since when did Heaven ever want us
We’re holding hands alone
I don’t want to wear these clothes anymore
How much longer until I change this body I’m in
