used to dehumanize us it is about
transmuting our pain into power it is
quite literally about a story where a
family member of mine and my wife’s told
us to stop posting our lesbian bullshit
all over the Internet and so I wrote a
song about it yeah that’s the only way
change is gonna happen that’s the only
way compassion is something we can learn
to have for one another for people with
different views than our own is through
love and compassion this next song is
called blow my mind and it’s about my
