Anyway, about the song... this song is generally about how I felt when our government stepped in and said that 1-800-SUICIDE should work with more faith-based suicide prevention methods instead of doing what the hopeline did which
allowed equal methods for LGBT teens. Naively, I couldn't believe that something so discriminatory could still happen in our country, and this concerned a cause that I had thought was so fucking obviously positive that I spent quite a bit of time a few years ago getting petitions filled out at shows for that initial federal funding. And of course, while all this shit is happening, all the country seems to talk about is a war a majority of us feel we shouldn't have been involved in in the first place. So I guess the underlying theme is that singling out gay teens for death is a really not cool.
