Pray the Gay Away

Written by Zachary Myers Theriault · 2023

[Verse 1]

Society
Keeps telling me
That everything
Is wrong with me
Just because
Of who I am
(and what I represent to them)

[Verse 2]

I don’t like sports
I play with dolls
I wear fragrances
(made for a sex other than my own)

My voice is high
My legs are short
I don’t have the drive
To hunt, kill, steal and more

[Pre-Chorus]

Woah oh
Am I the problem for sure?
Or is there more to the story?

Woah oh
It doesn’t matter I’m sure
Or is there more to your story?

[Chorus]

I’ve spent years of my life just crying
My life just trying
To fit in to your story

But now that I’m defying
I’m not complying
I’ve reached my glory

So if you’re looking for fun
Then you’ve come to the one
(who can light your candle)

[Post-Chorus]

Just remember that day
Just remember to pray
Your gay away

[Verse 3]

I don’t like cars
I watch makeup vids
I stan pop queens
(and ask where the album is)

My shirt is bright
My pants are tight
I don’t have the drive
To hunt, kill, steal and more

[Pre-Chorus]

Woah oh
Am I the problem for sure?
Or is there more to the story?

Woah oh
It doesn’t matter I’m sure
Or is there more to your story?

[Chorus]

I’ve spent years of my life just crying
My life just trying
To fit in to your story

But now that I’m defying
I’m not complying
I’ve reached my glory

So if you’re looking for fun
Then you’ve come to the one
(who can light your candle)

[Post-Chorus 2]

Just remember that day
Just remember to pray

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Woah oh
Am I the problem for sure?
Or is there more to your story?

[Chorus]

I’ve spent years of my life just crying
My life just trying
To fit in to your story

But now that I’m defying
I’m not complying
I’ve reached my glory

So if you’re looking for fun
Then you’ve come to the one
(who can light your candle)

[Post-Chorus 2]

You’ll remember that day
But know I’ll never pray
My gay away
