I uderstand how some of y'll feel. I'm 26 year old myself. I feel like my life is passing by! My education has been on a dead end for the last two year since I can't afford attending a University after graduating from a community college yet I can't lose hope. I do think we're closer than we have ever been to accomplishing our goal. The battle can still be won if we continue to carry on!

However we need to pass the Dream Act in order to pave the way for reform that will help you as well. Right now we need you to call Harry Reid's (D-Nevada)office and ask the Senator to bring Dream as a standalone before November's elections.

Dial 1-202-224-3121 and ask to speak with Senator Reid from Nevada.
will he answer us himself?

The faces all around me they don't smile they just crack
Waiting for our ship to come but our ships not coming back
We do our time like pennies in a jar
What are we saving for [x2]

There's a smell of stale fear that's reeking from our skins.
The drinking never stops because the drinks absolve our sins
We sit and grow our roots into the floor
But what are we waiting for? [x2]

[chorus:]
So give me something to believe
Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more
To keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe

Something's always coming you can hear it in the ground
It swells into the air
With the rising
Rising sound
And never comes but shakes the boards and rattles all the doors
What are we waiting for [x2]

[chorus]

I am hiding from some beast
But the beast was always here
Watching without eyes
Because the beast is just my fear
That I am just nothing
Now its just what I've become
What am I waiting for
Its already done

Oh

It was a tough day as a gay undocumented man. Two important bills, although not directly rejected fell flat on the ground. Although I was not too optimistic about today's vote, it was still heartbreaking.
