Return to the Closet Lyrics
The game is over. The damage is done. Fuck you for playing along. Break through the surface only to suffocate. Beating it into me. Burn witches as found. But not this time. Our culture acquires love design. Left naked with nothing but ourselves and contempt for what we're not supposed to be, not supposed to feel, not supposed to see. I will embrace you, we're all beautiful. We all return - confrontation cuts. In the closet - Can't get up.Another definition to keep control. With assorted names we know where to belong.

this song is about how we forget about human rights b/c its not as visible. Its about how ppl r brainwashed to believe that everyone has to be heterosexual, boys learn not to cry or hug, we admire the stud and despise the slut, and worship the nuclearfamily. sexism and homophobia are problems just like racism and fascism. Its just harder to see. Destroy prejudice. Destory stereotypes
shapeofpunk: i entirely agree.
Hey. Im german. So my englisch isnt very well. I feel that you are right, shapeofapunk. But could you explain in which lines or which words mean that we should not care about who is homophobia .. like that.. i'd be nice.
Exspcailly the verses "Fuck you for playing along. Break through the surface only to suffocate" And.. what is the "closet"? And why should we return to it? Thanks!
allaboutlyrics: the "closet" is a metaphorical term for the place where homosexuals who are in denial of their sexuality reside. to "come out of the closet" is to publicly admit to your sexuality. i'd say that to "return to the closet" in this context would be to return to hiding your orientation from the general public, as homosexuality is still largely frowned upon.
Hello, I was wondering about the last 15 seconds of that song, when you can hear the ending of another song being played... Does anybody know which song that is?
