	Lyrics In a school in Wyoming, Matthew Shepard studied hard, but they don't understand all because he loved a man all because he loved he stands out, he stands for something they can't comprehend all because he loved we'll take you, we'll break you, we'll hurt you, we'll hate you we'll straighten your bones all because he loved a man all because he loved in the dark of night all the hate comes to light won't you go home it happened when night, they were sure they were right they shut out his cries tied him to a fence, tied him to a wall and left him to die…all because, all because Now witches were burned, there's nothing we've learned hearts pumping fear what you hate in someone else is a part of yourself that you can't bear, all because he loved now if love is a crime and hate is divine Then send me to hell what happens in Laramie could happen to you or me Matthew Shepard knew it well Let love have its reign, we won't forget your name and this is our home
