Struck Down

Turn up your megaphones
Let your voices be clear
Like a modern day Moses on a mountain top
We stand firmly here, with our fists in the air singin...
Persecuted, but not abandoned
We're struck down, but not destroyed
Revolution is what you make it
Just know who you're fighting for
Strike us with tragedy
O, but death where's your sting
Like a wave that's crashing in a storm at sea
We claim victory, with our heart on our sleeve singin...
Persecuted, but not abandoned
We're struck down, but not destroyed
Revolution is what you make it
Just know who you're fighting for
Won't be afraid
With a drowning heart
A rising sea
Claim victory
Persecuted, but not abandoned
We're struck down, but not destroyed
Revolution is what you make it
Just know who you're fighting for

Sink or Swim

Here we go and the writing is there on the wall
My hands are shaking and my knees are quaking
So I must be ready to fall
Build me up just to burn me down
Stop me cold just to spin me round
Take a deep breath, your ship is sinking
Thought you were safe? That's what you get for thinking
Here we go and the writing is there on the wall
My hands are shaking and my knees are quaking
So I must be ready to fall
Don't let them drag you down
Not while you drain and drown
Not while your heart still beats
Don't ever give up
Don't blame yourself for this
When life is hit or miss
Not while your heart still beats
Don't ever give up

Circumstance

Knee-jerk reaction
Is so in fashion
Let's point the finger to avert the blame
Cause a distraction
Don't dare take action
Rotate the faces of the status quo
What makes you think you're so much better than the person that's there
standing beside you?
Your circumstance is the only thing that separates kings
from heroes and has beens
The corporations
Have bought the nation
That doesn't sound like freedom to me
Capitalism
Is your religion
Mutually exclusive to our liberty
What makes you think you're so much better than the person that's there
standing beside you?
Your circumstance is the only thing that separates kings
from heroes and has beens
And if it came down to it, I'd let you in
With all of your hate and all of my sin
We could talk about the weather or the places we've been
Instead of fighting wars that we're never going to win
What makes you think you're so much better than the person that's there
standing beside you?
Your circumstance is the only thing that separates kings
from heroes and has beens
