Let them come a little closer To divide the weak from the prey The general will fall upon his bayonet And the young will dig their own graves We never said we'd keep silent We never promised to behave We refuse to praise your violence Your bullets won't keep you safe Brace yourselves We won't go back home You're not welcome here Your words are poison We can smell your fear Your words are venomous and taste like hell We've heard enough of what you preach Don't pretend like you speak for God When your tongue slithers and squirms like a leach We won't go silently We are a family We know what you are We've heard this song before We know the melody We see the chains in store For those bound in your slavery We said we'd never keep silent We promised to misbehave So, here's a taste of your own violence Our bullets will keep you safe Every breath that you release is filled with hate and vanity You and me could never be for now or for eternity One and one does not make three, your words are killing me You and me could never be for now or for eternity We won't go silently We are a family
