We are not. frightened anymore,
We stood up
We stood up
And there are two of us
Oh, There will be more
They’ll show up
They’ll show up
They’ll show up

You can blame a change of mind,
A seismic shift in times
They told us not to fight
But we’ll fight until we die

If you feel so empty
So used up, so let down
If you feel so angry
So ripped off so stepped on
You’re not the only one
Refusing to back down
You’re not the only one
So get up

Let’s start a riot, a riot
Let’s start a riot
Let’s start a riot, a riot
Let’s start a riot

If you feel so filthy
So dirty so ****** up
If you feel so walked on
So painful so pissed off
You’re not the only one
Refusing to go down
You’re not the only one
So get up

Let’s start a riot, a riot
Let’s start a riot
Let’s start a riot, a riot
Let’s start a riot

I’ll have you know I’m scared to death
That everything that you had said to me was just
A lie until you left
Now I’m hoping just a little bit stronger
Hold me up just a little bit longer
I’ll be fine, I swear
I’m just gone beyond repair

Let’s write a song that we can dance to
Cause they all wanna listen
Just to know how it sounds when
I do that thing you know that I do
When I find inspiration
This is me breaking down

I can feel a phoenix inside of me
As I march alone to a different beat
Slowly swallowing down my fear, yeah yeah

I am ready for the road less traveled
Suiting up for my crowning battle
This test is my own cross to bare
But I will get there

It’s never easy to be chosen, never easy to be called
Standing on the frontline when the box starts to fall
I can see the heavens but I still hear the flames
Calling out my name

I can see the writing on the wall
I can’t ignore this war
At the eh-end of it all
Who am I living for?

I can feel this lightness inside of me
Growing fast into a bolt of lightning
I know one spark will shock the world, yeah yeah

So I pray for a favour like Esther
I need your strength to handle the pressure
I know there will be sacrifice
But that’s the price

I’ll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You’ve been the only thing that’s right
In all I’ve done

And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we’ll make it anywhere
Away from here

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I’ll be right beside you dear

Louder louder
And we’ll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can’t raise your voice to say

To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbye
I nearly do

Rue.


Thanks to Sommer for the suggestion!

Send us a blindfold, send us a blade
Tell the survivors help is on the way

I was a blindfold, never complained
All the survivors singing in the rain
I was the one with the world at my feet

Got us a battle, leave it up to me

Find us a trap door, find us a plane
Tell the survivors help is on the way

I was a blindfold never complained
All the survivors singing in the rain
I was the one with the world at my feet
Got us a battle, leave it up to me

What it is and where it stops nobody knows
You gave me a life I never chose

I wanna leave but the world won’t let me go
I wanna leave but the world won’t let me go

God bless us everyone
We’re a broken people living under loaded gun
And it can’t be outfoght
It can’t be outdone
It can’t out matched
It can’t be outrun
No

And when I close my eyes tonight
To symphonies of blinding light
(God bless us everyone
We’re a broken people living under loaded gun
Oh)
Like memories in cold decay
Transmissions echoing away
Far from the world of you and I
Where oceans bleed into the sky

God save us everyone,
Will we burn inside the fires of a thousand suns?
For the sins of our hand
The sins of our tongue
The sins of our father
The sins of our young
No

Thanks to Jarred, Annah, Samantha, and Crystal for suggesting this song!

We live to win another victory
We are the young, dying sons
We live to change the face of history
Don’t be afraid it’s the price we pay
The only easy day was yesterday
So hear our voice, we have a choice
It’s time to face it

We are one, we are one, we are one
We will stand together
Number one, number one
The chosen ones
We are one, we are one
We will fight forever
We are one and we won’t die young

Remember me
Remember me
Remember me
Remember me

Where?
Where will you stand
When all the lights go out across these city streets?
Where were you when
All of the embers fell?
I still remember

There
Covered in ash
Covered in glass
Covered in all my friends
I still
Think of the bombs they built

If there’s a person I could be
Then I’d be another memory
Can I be the only hope for you?
Because you’re the only hope for me
And if we can find where we belong
We’ll have to make it on our own
Face all the burn and take it on
Because the only hope for me is you alone
