This world we love we'll fight to keep alive The spirit in our hearts and the will to survive The bitter taste, the hopeless days The pulling through, the fire escapes It all comes back, all comes back around Hits me so hard, near knocks me down We won't stop, we're drinking deep Might never be this way again so we play We play for keeps We're taught lies from the start We let fear control our hearts Close our eyes to the truth Close our windows to the youth Cast out the ones that don't belong Who can't afford to sing along To the mindless fucking tune Bigger, better, fill it up, consume And our hearts remain stark and empty rooms So we'll write our own songs We'll write our own books Fill our hearts with courage To take back everything they took Aspire to embrace compassion Allow our outrage to match our passion Volatile, vehement, constant, motion and Tides will turn like the fucking ocean
