Saint Valentine - Pride Lyrics

All the boys are in the sun
Their day is long and life's a f*cking party
Their altar decked with fruit and wine
Denuded they make out like it is not so painful
It is not so painful

I wish I could walk with pride
Wish I had been the one to do the right thing
Not cover my deceit with yet more lies
If I was beautiful inside
If I were true to my own mind
I would not poison all I prize
I would be gay and easy too

I would walk with pride
Beautiful inside
True to my own mind
Escape from the dark side

I say that I want true peace
Before trampling my heart in an ugly war
And marching in a vanguard of unrelenting hate
I say that I love my friends
Then leave them in the dirt
So I can chase some knave
Who'd think nothing of watching me burn upon the stake
