Uplift,
throw fists in the air.
Lets stir things up
while they are carelessly
filing themselves into futile lines.
Try your best,
you might just get to them
to follow you,
but its better than giving in.
(chorus)
I can see them getting closer,
make your move
this will all soon be over
I can see them getting closer,
make your move
this will all soon be over.
We are the chosen ones,
we are called to endure
(called to endure)
Holding fast our words
we will endure.
Pull me down,
drag this out
I will fight
with my eyes wide open
Pull me down,
drag this out
I will fight
with my eyes wide open
Try your best,
you might just get to them
to follow you,
but its better than giving in.
Try your best,
you might just get to them
to follow you,
but its better than giving.
(chorus)
If they are broken
we will teach them,
If they are broken
we will hold them,
If they are broken
we will keep them
(we will keep them)
If they are broken
we will keep them,
If they are broken
we'll stand beside them,
If they are broken
we will guide them
(we will guide them)
The past is a graveyard,
the past tense doesn't matter
(doesn't matter)
We'll fight on,
and we'll keep them
We'll fight on,
We will endure.
We've got a long way left
to be secure,
the coldest air breathes
down our necks
(down on our necks)
Try your best,
you might just get to them
to follow you,
but its better than giving in.
Try your best,
you might just get to them
to follow you,
but its better than giving.
