This girl, she was only fifteen
How dark it always seemed
No-one heard her scream
Pushed and judged for being herself
Turned away by everybody else
Don't turn away, don't turn away
We want equality
Where's the justice?
Still, they talk
Let them talk
But don't let them have a say
Won't let them get to me
We want equality
Where's the justice?
Still they talk
Let them talk
But don't let them have a say
This one's for you, from me
This boy, he was barely eighteen
The first time they crushed his dreams
Who was he to be?
He took their words of hate
Carved them in his face
Don't turn away, don't turn away
We want equality
Where's the justice?
Still, they talk
Let them talk
But don't let them have a say
Won't let them get to me
We want equality
Where's the justice?
Still they talk
Let them talk
But don't let them have a say
This one's for you, from me
So young, unsung
They couldn't overcome
Love is love and that's the way it's gonna stay
So if you're one of the thirty-eight
Swallow the hate you perpetuate
Your days are done, you rode the line
Out of touch, nowhere left to hide
Love is love
Love is love
Love is love
Love is love
Love is love
