Mockingbird

I just got Derek Webb’s new album for christmas! The tale on how I got it is a great story that I will save for the next Podcast but suffice it to say it is definatly the best that he has put out so far. Here is the song that has broken my heart recently… it’s realted to my last post in more ways then I can tell you…

Love Is Not Against the Law

Politics or love can make you blind but make you see
Make you a slave or make you free, but only one does it all
And it’s giving up your life for the ones you hate the most
It’s giving them your gown when they’ve taken your clothes

It’s learning to admit when you’ve had a hand in setting them up
And knocking them down

Because love is not against the law
Love is not against the law, no
Love, love, love

Are we defending life when we just pick and choose
Lives acceptable to lose and which ones to defend
Because you cannot choose your friends but you choose your enemies
And what if they were one, one and the same

Could you find a way to love them both the same
To give them your name

Because love is not against the law
Love is not against the law, no,
Love, love, love

Because love is not against the law
Love is not against the law, oh,
Love, love, love
