Barbed wire/holy land lyrics

[Verse 1]
When I was 12 years old in catholic school
I learned life wasn’t fair
Got called into the principal’s
Completely unprepared to talk about
Rumors that were going around
Got asked if I could tone it down
And be a better role model for all the younger kids
But I thought my sexuality was already well hid

[Chorus]
So if you tell me I'm going to hell I'll say that I'm already here
'Cause I'd rather chill with Satan
Than be Catholic and queer
Feeling like the world’s against you
For the people you want pressed against you
Hurts more than anyonе can understand
Since when is thеre barbed wire around the holy land?

[Verse 2]
So I started quoting bible verses
Lost myself in shallow worship
Turned against the love that I was trying to keep down
When everything I was scared to be
Got shown off right in front of me
I couldn’t help but act as if they shouldn't have been proud
[Chorus]
So if you tell me I'm going to hell I'll say that I'm already here
'Cause I'd rather chill with Satan
Than be Catholic and queer
Feeling like the world’s against you
For the people you want pressed against you
Hurts more than anyone can understand
Since when is there barbed wire around the holy land?

[Verse 3]
So go ahead, call me sacrilegious
'Cause I no longer choose to listen
To anything that tells me that the way I am is wrong
I've done my time and served my sentence
Of self hatred and blind repentance
And if you have a problem you can take it up with god

So if you tell me I'm going to hell I'll say that I'm already here
'Cause I'd rather chill with Satan
Than be Catholic and queer
Feeling like the world’s against you
For the people you want pressed against you
Hurts more than anyone can understand
Since when is there barbed wire around the holy land?
