[00:10.29]Aaron:We were talking about gay marriages with someone who helped write
[00:13.05]some of the song. One of the reasons why they're so few and far between,
[00:15.44]is because they're looked on as so bizarre.
[00:17.00]I was also thinking about interracial or interfaith relationships.
[00:19.41]
[00:20.54]If I give up on you I give up on me
[00:26.20]If we fight what's true, will we ever be
[00:31.76]Even if God himself and the faith I knew
[00:36.96]Shouldn't hold me back, shouldn't keep me from you
[00:43.21]Tease me, by holding out your hand
[00:53.06]Then leave me, or take me as I am
[01:03.71]And live our lives, stigmatized
[01:12.16]
[01:14.32]I can feel the blood rushing through my veins
[01:20.20]When I hear your voice, driving me insane
[01:25.91]Hour after hour day after day
[01:30.96]Every lonely night that I sit and pray
[01:36.77]Tease me, by holding out your hand
[01:46.77]Then leave me, or take me as I am
[01:57.35]And live our lives, stigmatized
[02:06.31]
[02:08.54]We live our lives on different sides,
[02:13.87]But we keep together you and I
[02:19.03]Just live our lives, stigmatized
[02:26.68]
[02:27.97]Alex:Stigmatized is pretty much an ode to all the people
[02:29.98]who are outcast whether it's in high school or life or whatnot,
[02:31.90]it's just kind of being looked at differently or being stigmatized.
[02:34.02]Rejected in that way. I had that in high school and I was the nerd or
[02:36.97]the one in the corner that no one really talked to and was kind of the weirdo.
[02:39.53]Except all the ladies, I think I dated every girl in my high school.
[02:42.14]I think that added to all the guys not wanting to be my friend.
[02:44.50]
[02:45.65]We'll live our lives, we'll take the punches every day
[02:55.48]We'll live our lives I know we're gonna find our way
[03:06.11]I believe in you
[03:11.96]Even if no one understands
[03:18.33]I believe in you, and I don't really give a damn
[03:28.85]If we're stigmatized
[03:34.57]We live our lives on different sides
[03:39.68]But we keep together you and I
[03:45.23]We live our lives on different sides,
[03:55.69]We're gonna live our lives
[03:58.55]Gotta live our lives
[04:01.02]We're gonna live our lives
[04:05.77]We're gonna live our lives, Gonna live our lives, Stigmatized
