The kids sing out in defiance against the world that has forgotten them...
He was never called cool,
Yeah, he never fit in
Because he thought for himself
And he went against the trends.
But the abuse at school was finally setting in, yeah,
Till the day he found a place to go
With the other punk rockers
At the punk rock show.
Shoulder to shoulder with his new allies
He forgot about school as tears came to his eyes,
And he sang,
"These are the days,
These are the days,
These are the days we will never forget, no."

All I have to say right now is that I'm still blown away by the testimonies kids gave at the hearing this morning.
I started crying several times today and I was deeply moved, more than I thought I'd be.
Thank you for reminding me why I fell in love with the music scene in Albuquerque, and thank you for caring enough to fight to keep it alive, despite the infuriatingly ignorant views of the state's representatives.
