About this video:
The idea was to shoot a video in which heterosexuality transformed into homosexuality. By doing so we hope to show that there is absolutely no difference in the kind of love involved in heterosexuality or homosexuality. Even though this video might not express this idea in a very clear and obvious manner, we strongly believe, no… We know, that ‘it’s okay to be gay’ and that anyone who does not agree is just plain wrong.
Lyrics:
When we were kids
So young
Always climbing trees and having fun
No idea if our hearts would turn colder
How things would work when we turned older
Little kids with small problems –
big kids – big troubles
So what is wrong – with trying to stay young
‘Cause growing up – feels like giving in
Growing up – feels like giving in
And of course things change
– keep forcing my ideals to back down
But I won’t bow down
A paradox of our minds
The years don’t kill what we need to find – in life
Or at least don’t allow them to
But I won’t bow down
I won’t bow down!
We can’t stay kids
And stay young
But we can climb and still have fun
Don’t let you heart grow colder
And still speak out against the things you consider wrong
Just grow up – and don’t give in
See the world – and don’t give in
