Different Kind Of Love

from The Man Behind The Music by Prince Pheonix

/

about

I wrote this song during my own battle with just who I was, as it's hard to find yourself when you don't know what you want to be.

Think of this as a coming out song as the different kind of love is that with someone of the same gender as yourself, seeing as that's what I was looking for at the time of writing this, I based it around the struggle of coming to terms with homosexual feelings and whatnot.

Now I know what I am and I'm happy with it, the people it affects will learn about it in time, but for now I keep it to myself for safety, because I know they'd be upset.

But...
Here I am, This is me!

lyrics

For a while now, I've been wanting a different life than this
But I hide away my true identity, locked in the closet

(But now)Now I cannot hide
(I can't hide) I'll face the light
(Face the light) I am not ashamed
(Not ashamed) Yes you heard me right

Here I am, this is me, I've made my choice of who I'm going to be
Now I look for love in the arms of another and you just don't compare
To this different kind of love
oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh different kind of love
oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh different kind of love

I never thought that I could fall in love with you
But I'm falling more every single day
I feel comfortable saying those three words to you
And I can't see myself changing

(But now)Now I cannot hide
(I can't hide) I'll face the light
(Face the light) I am not ashamed
(Not ashamed) Yes you heard me right

Here I am, this is me, I've made my choice of who I'm going to be
Now I look for love in the arms of another and you just don't compare
To this different kind of love
oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh different kind of love
oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh different kind of love

I've tried other types of love before
But this is the one that feels right
I can't remember a time when I have been happier
Than the way I felt with you last night
Oh yeah, oh yeah

Here I am, this is me, I've made my choice of who I'm going to be
Now I look for love in the arms of another and you just don't compare
To this different kind of love
oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh different kind of love
oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh different kind of love

Consisting of songs based on real life events that happened during early 2008, with later albums, continuing along that theme. I produce songs that are full of emotion, so they end up becoming stories more than songs. ... more
