we are here to save your life
the fool, the drunk, the child and his wife
we won't let the sun go down
we're gonna chase the demons out of town
sing it when you feel alone, backwards through the megaphone
sing it to the ones you love, and the ones you'd like to be rid of
we are here to take the blame, to take the taunts, and live the shame
we are here to make you feel
it terrifies you, but it's real
it will keep you up all night and in a flood, the morning light
spilling out across your room
you say the words will get there soon
the revolution wasn't bad, we hit the streets with all we had
tape recording of the sound of the velvet underground
a kay way jacket torn to shreds, and a dream inside our heads
and after changing everything, they couldn't tell, we couldn't sing
after changing everything they couldn't tell, they couldn't sing
they couldn't tell, we couldn't sing, and that changes everything
