Lovers in a dangerous time.
I believe gays should NOT be thrown under the bus by the Democratic party just because it's a so-called 'losing issue' with the willfully ignorant and bigoted. As the song says, NOTHING WORTH HAVING COMES WITHOUT SOME SORT OF FIGHT.
I 100% support equal rights for all my GLBT brothers and sisters.
Kick at the darkness till it bleeds daylight.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhrglSnUe5w

Don’t the hours grow shorter as the days go by?
You never get to stop and open our eyes
One minute you’re waiting for the sky to fall
The next you’re dazzled by the beauty of it all

Lovers in a dangerous time

These fragile bodies of touch and taste
This fragrant skin this hair like lace
Spirits open to the thrust of grace
Never a breath you can afford to waste

Lovers in a dangerous time

When you’re lovers in a dangerous time
Sometimes you’re made to feel as if your love’s a crime
Nothing worth having comes without some kind of fight
Got to kick at the darkness ’til it bleeds daylight

When you’re lovers in a dangerous time
Lovers in a dangerous time

We were lovers in a dangerous time
We were lovers in a dangerous time
