About Me

You Are a "Don't Tread On Me" Libertarian
You distrust the government, are fiercely independent, and don't belong in either party.
Religion and politics should never mix, in your opinion... and you feel oppressed by both.
You don't want the government to cramp your self made style. Or anyone else's for that matter.
You're proud to say that you're pro-choice on absolutely everything! What's Your Political Persuasion?"Marker in the Sand" (Pearl Jam - 2006) Words : Eddie Vedder Music : Mike McCreadyThere is a marker,... No one sees it cause the sand Has covered over,... All the messages it kept Misunderstanding,... What original truth was And out expanding,... In a faith, but not in loveWhat went wrong?Walking tightrope high,... Over moral ground Seeing visions of,............. Falling up somehow Do come downWith the living, Let,..... What is living love So unforgiving, yet,.... Needing forgiveness firstGod, what do you say?Those undecided,........ Needn't have faith to be free And those misguided, There was a plan for them to be Now you got both sides Claiming killing in Gods name But God is nowhere,..... To be found, convenientlyWhat goes on?Walking tightrope high,... Over moral ground Seeing visions of,............. Before you burn them down Do come roundWith a living, let,...... What is living love So unforgiving, yet... Needing forgiveness firstGod, what do you say? What do you say?There is a sickness,...... A sickness coming over me Like watching freedom,. Being sucked straight out to sea And the solution?,........ Well, from me far would let it be But the delusion,.......... Is feeling dangerous to meWhat goes wrong?Walking tightrope high,... Over moral ground Seeing visions of,............. Falling up somehow Do come downWith a living, let,...... What is living love So unforgiving, yet... Needing forgiveness firstGod, what do you say? What do you say?Calling out,......... Calling out. Calling out,......... I'm calling you out.
