Intro: X2
Yeah, we say making changes
starts in the little things you do
Revolution begins at home
but for most of us it ends at two
We're doing something
we're making changes
Like changing the brand
of crap we buy
We say it makes a difference
but that's just another lie.
[Intro Chord Progression] X2
It used to be us and them
and you and me
And now we can't reach our potential
without a common enemy
real war
to fight against
instead of our petty
disagreements
How can I rationalize my life
during wartime lie?
Bridge: ? X3
Then:
call to action and no reaction
Taking our lives in our own hands
Instead of sitting around and talking
about the same old shitty bands
The war's going
on right now and
I'm not doing
anything about it
Without a crowd I'm
not so loud
I can't do anything by myself
But that's just another lie
[Intro Chord Progression] X2
End on
