Universal Untruth
By Una Elfman
Why are you trying to kill me?
I wonÕt deny myself for a fantasy
My foundation is my soul
My cornerstone is intuition
ThereÕs no room for out-of-date ideas
I hate that Holy Book, full of them
Telling us to change our loving ways
Exchange them for militant intolerance
Conform or die
But no truth is universal
What do you know about me?
You donÕt know me enough to tell me what I should be
I might be unorthodox, but my life is right for me
Why do you want me to deny myself?
WhatÕ so great about conformity?
