What’s it gonna take for me?
I’m on my hands and knees
While all the poets fill
pages of loose leaf
I feel cheap and I feel empty
We will bathe in
the sea of disbelief
But we will not go quickly
No we will not die so easily
And I knew that this would happen,
it always does
And I couldn’t stop my reaction
so I let it come
I let it come
I still hold the belief
that we are free
That we don’t need
the rules to see
That despite what we’ve done
we’re not alone
We’re closer than
we think to home
It didn’t take me too long
to believe that I could do anything
We turn the songs up
loud so we can sing
I am true and I am living
We will walk through the valley of
the shadow of the boring
and burn it all
No we will not go quietly
And I knew that this would happen,
it always does
And I couldn’t stop my reaction
so I let it come
I let it come
I still hold the belief
that we are free
That we don’t need
the rules to see
That despite what we’ve done
we’re not alone
We’re closer than
we think to home
to home to home to home to home
Across the water you call me,
but I’m not listening as I sink down
Water fills my lungs
as I begin to drown
I knew that this would
I still hold the belief
that we are free
That we don’t need
the rules to see
That despite what we’ve done
we’re not alone
We’re closer than
we think to home
