They paved the way
Survivors
Not victims
Survivors
They are the ones who screamed to be heard
So now we only have to whisper
They fought when no one believed
When they were shamed, isolated, attacked
But they kept going
Even when they couldn’t see the light at the end of the tunnel
And on their way they left lanterns for us so we wouldn’t be stuck in the dark like them
