Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I wore the look like armor
Wore the jokes so right
Smile on, wrist loose, loud enough
To buy my spot tonight
Bar tabs, bad decisions
Kisses I won’t replay
Trying to stay in the picture
Trying to earn my way
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me who I gotta be
To keep that table warm
Tell me who I gotta be
When the room starts to storm
[Chorus]
Not just token
Not just chosen
I am more
Than the pose and
Not just token
Not just broken
I want more
Than the door
[Verse 2]
Three drinks in, I’m glowing
He said, “Come home, then”
One-night smoke, one-night halo
Gone by half past ten
I laughed too hard for cover
Acted like I did not care
But in the mirror after
I saw a stranger there
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me who I gotta be
To keep that table warm
Tell me who I gotta be
When the room starts to storm
[Chorus]
Not just token
Not just chosen
I am more
Than the pose and
Not just token
Not just broken
I want more
Than the door
[Bridge]
I’m the boy with the hard grin
I’m the kid with the scars
I’m the one who kept shrinking
Just to fit in bars
But my name is not a mascot
My body is not a trend
I can dance in the chaos
And still be my own end
[Chorus]
Not just token
Not just chosen
I am more
Than the pose and
Not just token
Not just broken
I want more
Than the door
[Outro]
So keep your look
Keep your game
I’m still here
With my whole name
Not just token
Not just token

Prompt
A grungy house song about the obsession of being relevant in the gay community, but realising there is so much more to my identity than being a token homosexual. Include drinking, one night stands.
