We all carry these things inside us that no one else can see; they hold us down like anchors, they drown us out at sea.

All together now
In a group
Speak against the rules
One, two, three
Now sign your name on the dotted line
It doesn’t take much
To accomplish a goal
We just need
People coming together
Uniting with each other
Supporting one another
Helping, caring, signing, fighting
For the rights that we want
All we need is a petition.

My friends and I want a change in this world. We'll fight for it one signature at a time.
