Starts in the little things you do
"Revolution begins at home"
But for most of us it ends there, too
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
It used to be us and them
And you and me
And now we can't reach our potential
Without a common enemy
A real war to fight against
Instead of our petty disagreements
But how can I rationalize
My life during wartime lie
A call to action and a reaction
Taking our lives in our own hands
Instead of sitting around and talking
About the same old shitty bands
But war is 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
Yeah, we say making changes Starts in the little things you do "Revolution begins at home" But for most of us it ends there, too 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 It used to be us and them And you and me And now we can't reach our potential Without a common enemy A real war to fight against Instead of our petty disagreements But how can I rationalize My life during wartime lie A call to action and a reaction Taking our lives in our own hands Instead of sitting around and talking About the same old shitty bands But war is 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 Explain Request ×
