"Selling The Drama" lyrics

"Selling The Drama"

And to love a god, and to fear a flame
And to burn a crowd that has a name
And to right or wrong, and to meek or strong
It is known, just scream it from the wall

I've willed, I've walked, I've read, I've talked
I know, I know, I've been here before

Hey, now we won't be raped
Hey, now we won't be scarred like that
Hey, now we won't be raped
Hey, now we won't be scarred like that

It's the sun that burns, it's the wheel that turns
It's the way we sing that makes 'em dream
And to Christ, a cross; and to me, a chair
I will sit and earn the ransom from up here

I've willed, I've walked, I've read, I've talked
I know, I know, I've been here before

Hey, now we won't be raped
Hey, now we won't be scarred like that
Hey, now we won't be raped
Hey, now we won't be scarred like that, scarred like that

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(We won't, we won't, we won't, we won't)

And to love a god, and to fear a flame
And to burn a love that has a name

I've willed, I've walked, I've read, I've talked
I know, I know, I've been here before

Hey, now we won't be raped
Hey, now we won't be scarred like that
Hey, now we won't be raped
Hey, now we won't be scarred like that, hey na na na

Hey, now, no, no
We won't be scarred like that
We won't be scarred like that
