LGBT


All I ever wanted was equality

When my love could be free

But what happens when you live in a country full of greed?

When it seems like the somebody is really a nobody

Why!

I scream in my mind

But maybe that's the price to pay

For being Bi

But what about the Lesbians and Gay and Transsexuals

Who decide to fight for this treacherous country

My country tis' of thee

Sweet land of liberty

Why are my friends forgotten?

So stop keeping us captive
