I came out to my parents when I was 25 years old. It seems quite late, but I wasn’t ready until then.
I was so nervous to do so. We've all heard horror stories about other LGBT people being disowned, kicked out of the house, or worse. Even though I knew my parents were generally kind people, there was still a part of me that was afraid.
This song was based on how I thought the conversation would have went between my dad and I. In the end it didn’t go like this at all, because my dad is awesome. I’m so lucky that my dad (and my mom) were accepting of me.
My wish for everyone else out there who’s struggling to come out is that you’ll be welcomed by your parents with open arms too. I know how tough it can be. In any case, you’ll always have me to send you hugs over the internet.
Love you, rosebuds!

Lyrics:
Ooh whoa
Ooh whoa
I don’t like guns
I don’t like war
Papa I can’t pretend no more
I don’t like cars
Or G.I. Joe
You won’t find what I’m looking for
I just wanna lose control
Paint my nails just like a girl
I’ve got music in my soul
I can’t live your life anymore
Papa don’t break the china
Papa don’t break the glass
Papa I’m moving on while
You hold onto the past
Papa don’t be mad
Remember the things you said
I’ll love you forever
My love is infinite
Papa
Ooh whoa
Boys don’t kiss
Boys don’t cry
Papa don’t tell me all your lies
I can’t keep
The pain inside
Tears that don’t fall will never dry
I just wanna lose control
Pierce my ears just like a girl
I’ve got music in my soul
I can’t live your life anymore
I don’t mean any harm
Don’t pull the smoke alarm
It’s a different time now
So open up your mind
If you really knew it all
I wouldn’t have to sing this song
But here we are on the living room couch
There’s something we should talk about
Papa don’t break the china
Papa don’t break the glass
Papa I’m moving on while
You hold onto the past
Papa don’t be mad
Remember the things I said
I’ll love you forever
My love is infinite
Ooh whoa
Ooh whoa
Papa papa papa
Ooh whoa
Ooh whoa
Papa papa papa
Ooh whoa
Ooh whoa
Papa papa papa
Ooh whoa
Ooh whoa
Papa papa papa
If you really know it all
Come and hear me sing this song
Here we are on the living room couch
Dad… we need to talk
Papa don’t break the china
Papa don’t break the glass
Papa I’m moving on while
You hold onto the past
Papa don’t be mad
Remember the things you said
I’ll love you forever
My love is infinite
Ooh whoa
Ooh whoa
Papa papa papa
Ooh whoa
Ooh whoa
Papa papa papa
Ooh whoa
Ooh whoa
Papa papa papa
Ooh whoa
Ooh whoa
Papa papa papa
