The DUP raise their ugly head in time for Halloween To pledge they'll block equal marriage for at least the next five years That they're 'not homophobic' but our calls are 'not appealing to their ears' With a giant card we march on Valentine's Day 2017 With the signatures of a thousand Northern Irish lovers times fourteen We carry pictures of those we lost, no big drama, no big fuss A queer valentine to Belfast, from all of us The Government they think they own us Their up, their time is done The Government they crush our shoulders But I know our time will come We're not running away, running away We're gonna fight for today, and carve out our way You keep bringing me down You keep muffling the sound that I make You're not running the world, the boys and the girls You've got people beneath you will break You keep bringing us pain You don't think we should be treated the same You don't know what you've got; the things that we've not But you stoke a fire and we're the flames A battle, we're warriors, lovers, Irish men and women And we'd take our lead from Heroes old for this battle we fought for winning There is power in our march, our Card, and a change coming soon There is power in our movement, in the glint of a pink heart shaped balloon The Government can't stay together with the country in their care The Government won't play together, they don't know how to share We're not running away, running away No we're gonna fight for today, and carve out our way You keep bringing me down You keep muffling the sound that I make You're not running the world, the boys and the girls You've got people beneath you will break You keep bringing us pain You don't think we should be treated the same You don't know what you've got; the things that we've not But you stoke a fire and we're the flames You protect the right to criticise This stalemate isn't right Another bill shot down While another grave is found We demand that more should be done Than just 'legal from 81' My boys they lift me high So I'll scream towards the sky You keep bringing me down You keep muffling the sound that I make You're not running the world, the boys and the girls You've got people beneath you will break I float above a cloud of thousands, our hope lifts me from the ground Today we'll make them hear us, or we'll fight and tear them down You bring me down You bring me down, you bring me You bring me down Bring me down, bring me
