Emery - 2007 Clarksville High Volleyball State Champs Gay is OK Lyrics
I saw your car down on the street
I hoped your day would lead you right to me
But if I know that it surely does
So maybe it's best to keep space between us
We both would share that danger until
I was caught, caught between joy and judgment
But now I know what it's like to be alone
You said you wanted, you said you wanted everything
But I ain't got it, I can't be the one to leave
You told me it was as simple as the golden rule
You saw that fear we felt in this moment
(I made mistakes in believing)
(I made the wrong choice most every time)
I was caught, caught between joy and judgment
(Ten thousand reasons in a small town)
But now I know
(But now I know)
And where do you think we should go
(And I can't ask why)
Where do you think we could go
(And I can't ask why)
Where do you think we should go
(And I can't ask why)
Where could we go
(And I can't ask why)
Momma said that's not the way it goes
Daddy said that's not the life we chose
Momma said and Daddy said
Momma said but I never said
You know, in my eyes I never blamed them
They were just trying to figure out life, same with me
I know it must've been hard to hear those words come out of my mouth
I knew what it meant, same as them
I was broken, deformed even
I might as well have a sign and chain around my neck
It was going to be a hard rest of my life
That was plain to see
But who's to say what true love is or what love looks like?
I don't even think I could tell you
I don't even think I could tell you exactly what love is
Is this true, is this true love?
What is real, what is real love?
If I'm wrong, tell me from above
If I'm wrong, tell me who to love

Emery 2007 Clarksville High Volleyball State Champs Gay is OK Comments
I have never commented on youtube before, but thought this was worth it.
I have listened to Emery since the Walls music video aired on JCTV in 2004. However, with the last album release, and this song, Emery has lost a fan. I will be spending more time listening to Sleeping Giant.
Why why why why why why why emery?you just lost a fan
N. Joshua Perkins bye
@Caleb Bennett I don't care
N. Joshua Perkins adios
@zexy ciao
Why stop being a fan? Because of this song?
I read that, apparently, this song was about one of them visiting an older gay man in a hospital, and reflecting on how we as Christians approach homosexuality. They were wondering if telling a person who to love or not to love, in this case, keeps them from finding actual true love. Do we truly know what love is? Who are we to judge, who are we to say?
Edit: I know a lot of heterosexual folks who make a mess of or misinterpret love. To me it's all the same- I am to love and they take up their sexuality with God. Peace!.
God is to say. You can't cherry pick Christianity and it's founders.
Well probably cuz they got a lot of flack for being anti-gay a while back (which was the reason I stopped supporting them).
As Christians, if we truly love those that are homosexual, we tell them that it is wrong. Its very clear that those who practice homosexuality will not inherit the kingdom of God (1 Corinthians 6:9-11). It even states that those in the early church were practicing these things (v.11), so this is not a new concept.
Objectively, homosexuality cannot be true love.
Is this the story of a gay person?
“But if I knew he surely did”? Emery, could you clear this up for me?
@Misael Santillana http://www.badchristian.com/bc_podcast/emery-song-premiere/
What even is that title though
The lyrics clear that question up.
@TorchyTries Still not sure if I quite get it.
the title is something we wrote on the windows of our van as a joke and a social experiment when we toured with switchfoot in 2007
Emery wow you actually right back nice 👍🏻
@emely holguin I got to meet them a few months ago. They're a great group of guys.
Please come to Brazil and play this song :'(
I also want a lot
I love that song!
