We walk over Stone Walls Wielding 'weapons' of rainbow flags. Yet who gets to decide what are weapons and what are Self-defence? We walk over Stone Walls Wielding 'weapons' of yelling "Love is Love" Yet who gets to decide what are weapons and what are Self-assurance? We walk over Stone Walls Wielding 'weapons' of blue, pink and white banners Yet who gets to decide what are weapons and what are Self-expression? We walk with Stonewall - the one we built - and Wield banners and flags and our Voices Who tell you to change past mistakes that were not mistakes Because they were intentions carved into laws to harm. And why should past faults of ours Hurt people Miles away? We stand on Stone Walls we built So we can be seen from even all the way over there In Commonwealth who lack the currency of Love for people's Differences We walk onto our Stonewalls And tell you to change outdated rules. Laws are meant to make, not break. Make Equality, don't Break it.

Walking Over Stonewalls
We walk over Stone Walls Wielding 'weapons' of rainbow flags. Yet who gets to decide what are weapons and what are Self-defence? We walk over Stone Walls Wielding 'weapons' of yelling "Love is Love" Yet who gets to decide what are weapons and what are Self-assurance? We walk over Stone Walls Wielding 'weapons' of blue, pink and white banners Yet who gets to decide what are weapons and what are Self-expression? We walk with Stonewall - the one we built - and Wield banners and flags and our Voices Who tell you to change past mistakes that were not mistakes Because they were intentions carved into laws to harm. And why should past faults of ours Hurt people Miles away? We stand on Stone Walls we built So we can be seen from even all the way over there In Commonwealth who lack the currency of Love for people's Differences We walk onto our Stonewalls And tell you to change outdated rules. Laws are meant to make, not break. Make Equality, don't Break it.
