I wrote this song after the passing of Proposition 8 in California. Since Amiestreet.com has closed it is no longer available there, but I'll try and put it up somewhere soon for anyone who wants it. The video features photos from the Silver Lake protest in Los Angeles in November 2008. To see any of those visit: http://www.flickr.com/photos/intellichick/sets/72157608794764817/
Lyrics below:
So Special (cc.tran)
You can wrap your arms around me
I can give you a kiss
We can wear rings of gold
And declare to the world this is it
And anyone could say
That we were right or wrong
But we have the choice, we have the voice,
to say we belong
Chorus
But what makes us special?
What makes us more real -
Than other lovers in love
Just the same?
What makes us so special?
That people could hold claim
That others shouldnt have it -
What so many throw away
Love one another
Words I abide
Golden rule
In a collective denied
I know that you love me
And thats all I need
But we have the choice, we have the voice,
to say we belong
Chorus
Bridge
What if the tables were all turned around?
What if were the separate side of equal?
Our choice, our voice, was someone elses sound?
Chorus
But we have the choice, we have the voice,
to say we belong
so talented
