|
When faith alone is not enough, |
|
To keep our heads barely above, |
|
We look for reason and come up empty-handed. |
|
And when our children fight our wars, |
|
While we sit back just keeping score, |
|
We're teaching murder not understanding now. |
|
We're setting the fires to light the way, |
|
We're burning it all to begin again, |
|
With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands, |
|
We sing for change |
|
The lives our buried sons have laid, |
|
Won't cancel debts we've yet to pay, |
|
In death, we justify anything now, |
|
As long as we blindly obey and do exactly what they say, |
|
We'll have no one to blame, but ourselves now. |
|
We're setting the fires to light the way, |
|
We're burning it all to begin again, |
|
With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands, |
|
We sing for change. |
|
We run on the fumes of injustice, |
|
We'll never die with the fuel that you give us, |
|
Keep it coming 'cause I'm prepared to burn, |
|
Keep running, find me at every turn. |
|
Your life around, |
|
(into something true, into something true) |
|
So turn your life around, |
|
(into something true, something true) |
|
We're setting the fires to light the way, |
|
We're burning it all to begin again, |
|
With hope in our hearts and bricks in our hands, |
|
We sing for change. |
