Body Count
Embrace Diversity: Beyond Binary Choices in Real Humans' 'Body Count'
Lyrics
I've been afraid and I've been bold
I've experienced fear and boldness in my life
I've been young and I've felt old
I've been both young and felt old
But now, I'm the other thing
Currently, I identify as something different
Believer skeptic
I am both a believer and a skeptic
Bought and sold
I have been bought and sold
Blue and red
I've experienced both blue and red emotions
Hot and cold
I've felt both hot and cold
Now, I'm the other thing
Currently, I identify as something different
Hatred guards the door to fear
Hatred is a barrier to fear, protecting against it
But you're the one that's getting hurt
Despite the protection, you are the one suffering
Apathy is not a cure
Apathy is not a solution
It's better to be open than sure
Being open-minded is preferable to being overly certain
Everybody counts
Everyone is important
Everybody counts
Reiteration that everyone is important
So don't go adding to the body count
So, avoid contributing to the number of casualties
Everybody counts
Emphasizing the importance of every individual
Everybody counts
Reiteration of the significance of each person
So don't go adding to the body count
Warning against increasing the count of casualties
Its not only this or only that
Life is not just one extreme or the other
It's not only good or only bad
It's not just about good or bad
I say, see the other thing
Advocacy for recognizing the 'other thing'
If you're only found or only lost
If you're only found or lost, you may miss life's nuances
You might have a life without nuance
Encouragement to embrace diversity and try new things
Just try!
An urging to experience life from different perspectives
Be the other thing
Encouragement to be something different
Hatred guards the door to fear
Hatred acts as a barrier to fear
But you're the one that's getting hurt
Despite the protection, you are the one suffering
Apathy is not a cure
Apathy is not a solution
It's better to be open than sure
Being open-minded is preferable to being overly certain
Everybody counts
Reiteration that everyone is important
Everybody counts
Emphasizing the importance of every individual
So don't go adding to the body count
Warning against increasing the count of casualties
Everybody counts
Emphasizing the importance of every individual
Everybody counts
Reiteration of the significance of each person
So don't go adding to the body count
Warning against increasing the count of casualties
Everybody counts
Emphasizing the importance of every individual
Everybody counts
Reiteration of the significance of each person
So don't go adding to the body count
Warning against increasing the count of casualties
Everybody counts
Emphasizing the importance of every individual
Everybody counts
Reiteration of the significance of each person
So don't go adding to the body count
Warning against increasing the count of casualties
