People
like these, my friends, are why it is only A Matter of Time...
All
people will know of TS
…real soon.
No more bias, or reactions, ridicule, or pain.
Since we can see
a much better life,
for those with TS
who live in strife.
Oh it's time,
only time,
Oh it's only just a matter of time.
Of time…
Look what we've done
working together
…so far.
We've taken by storm
laboratories, and the World-Wide Web.
TS is tuned
on our TV's
in books, plays, novels
and in the movies.
Oh it's time,
only time,
Oh it's only just a matter of time!
Don't give up hope now.
We're getting so near!
When I walk out my door
And tic without fear.
As long as we've got people like you, you, and you.
We will succeed in all we do!
Even
our schools look quite different
…these days.
Filling the halls are more advocates,
more support that wasn't there
…before.
Good times lie ahead!
Congratulations to all (yeeeaaah)!
And since we can film
Since we can train
Since we research
Since we explain
Since we can see
Where TS will be
…so soon (ohhhhH)
In Time!
