Proposition 8

Proposition 8 was passed by Californians in November, 2008. Prop 8 makes it illegal for same-sex couples to marry in California. 18,000 couples were married between May and November, 2008. Now it is possible that the state of California will divorce these couples. Here is a video with pictures of some of the families that will be affected.


"Fidelity": Don't Divorce... from Courage Campaign on Vimeo.

Here are the lyrics to the song in the video. It is called "Fidelity" and is by Regina Spektor.

Fidelity

(Shake it up)

I never loved nobody fully
Always one foot on the ground
And by protecting my heart truly
I got lost in the sounds
I hear in my mind
All of these voices
I hear in my mind all of these words
I hear in my mind all of this music

And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
It breaks my heart


Suppose I never ever met you
Suppose we never fell in love
Suppose I never ever let you kiss me so sweet and so soft
Suppose I never ever saw you
Suppose we never ever called
Suppose I kept on singing love songs just to break my own fall
Just to break my fall
Just to break my fall
Just to break my fall
Break my fall
Break my fall

All my friends say that of course its gonna get better
Gonna get better
Better better better better
Better better better better better better

I never love nobody fully
Always one foot on the ground
And by protecting my heart truly
I got lost
In the sounds
I hear in my mind
All these voices
I hear in my mind all of these words
I hear in my mind
All of this music
And it breaks my heart
It breaks my heart

I hear in my mind
All these voices
I hear in my mind all of these words
I hear in my mind
All of this music
And it breaks my heart
It breaks my heart

Breaks my
Heart
Breaks my heart
