More From Adam Duritz

We have a common enemy. we have this in common: we have a common oppressor, a common exploiter, and a common discriminator. but once we all realize that we have this common enemy, then we unite on the basis of what we have in common. and what we have foremost in common is that enemy - the white man. he's an enemy to all of us. i know some of you all think that some of them aren't enemies. time will tell.

I do believe you have a wound too. i do believe it is both specific to you and common to everyone. i do believe it is the thing about you that must be hidden and protected, it is the thing that must be tap danced over five shows a day, it is the thing that won't be interesting to other people if revealed. it is the thing that makes you weak and pathetic. it is the thing that truly, truly, truly makes loving you impossible. it is your secret, even from yourself. but it is the thing that wants to live.

The uncontested absurdities of today are the accepted slogans of tomorrow. they come to be accepted by degrees, by dint of constant pressure on one side and constant retreat on the other - until one day when they are suddenly declared to be the country's official ideology.

There is no trick to writing a believable love story, a heartbreaking scene or real-sounding dialogue. all you need is to tell the truth. it’s always heartbreaking.

We've had a culture war roaring away, and the kinds of people who want to abuse and discriminate against gay people who are adults can't really lay their hands on us unless they want to be gay-bashers and go to jail. they abuse us from afar and in the abstract, they abuse us with checkbooks and ballots, but their kids go to school on monday morning. and there's a gay kid. and they feel they have license to beat that gay kid up in a way that i don't think they did when i was in school. i think it's gotten worse.

Here we are told that christ really lives in me, if i have accepted christ as my savior. in other words, we have the words of jesus to the thief of the cross, 'today thou wilt be with me in paradise.' christ can say, 'today thou wilt be with me in paradise,' and mean it. to die is to be with the lord. it is not just an idea, it is a reality. but at the same time, christ, the same christ who gives the promise just as definitely, that when i have accepted christ as my savior, he lives in me.
