lyrics: you tell me the same is so different, when did the same become so different, when did the same become so wrong? we live in the same houses, lead the same lives, hold the same values, yet we don’t share the same rights. words you may never hear, i take thee, i honor thee, i love thee, i do. words i’m not sure i want to hear, i take thee, i honor thee, i love thee, i do. not recognized for the life you live, not recognized for the love you give. let us be happy with despising what we don’t know, what we don’t understand, then ask questions later. dictate this lifestyle, assume the unknown, and still they will follow suit. when the dead are found and return home, still won’t be recognized. if you can’t live this way, then i don’t want to live this way. don’t ask if this is about the money, but to live how the rest live in entirety. and i’m convinced, that the foundations between you and me is the same between she and she. and i’m convinced that the foundations between you and me is the same beween he and he.
explanation: after the incidents of september 11th widows and widowers were honored by the airlines involved with the crash with a sum of money, a plaque, and ashes from the world trade center. people married, whether it be three months or three years, were recognized and their relationships were publicly made more valid than they already were. while this is a nice gesture – at the same time couples involved in homosexual relationships were never noticed – what they had built, some for more than 8 years, was not and is not given any worth to. sadly, homophobia exists at every level of our society.
heterosexuals are granted rights from the day they are born, ones that are often taken for granted. marriage and benefits that come with are just a few of them. homosexuals have never had these rights. same-sex marriage, at its current point, will never suffice until we are all equal. always question the rights you may or may not have and how it effects you and those around you.

The drums after the breakdown drive me insane; the kick and snare interaction is ridiculous. This whole album is goated and has reignited my love of punk and its subgenres. Sirko.rip
