WE ARE UNITED AUTISTICS

Maybe I don't speak too well
but I'm coming outta my shell
And I like playing by myself if you can't tell
I like to go to school
yeah I'm a miracle
and I'm glad to be alive

If you'll wait patiently
well then eventually
I will understand the words that you're saying to me
My autism
is like a prison
that I'm in

I share my heart but only in my mind
I share my pain when I scream at night
I can't express to you
what I'm going through
The only way is for me to cry

Mom I see your fear
through every single tear
Just to know I've caused you pain from inside of here
My autism
is like a prison
that I'm in

I share your joy but only in my mind
You show me love but just not in my time
Cause my reality
takes everything in me
To make it through without a fight

I know you love me
when you hug me
And when I hear you pray to God for Him to heal me
Maybe one day
you won't have to pray
And I won't have to see you cry

(reprise)
Maybe one day
I won't be this way
Until then we'll get by
End
