"In Our Time" lyrics

"In Our Time"

When we woke up this mornin', couldn't tell the world had changed
We were clingin' to each other through the gas and the acid rain
S.W.A.T. standin' like a wall, they were there to intimidate
And the masses all fled as they broke through the barricade

Fingerprints and a photo to match my disbelief
It was never meant to be the civilians against police
I remember when you told me there was nothing left to fight
But it never crossed my mind you could be right

Whatever happens in our time
Say you won't turn back
'Cause all the rebels have died out
But we're not like the rest
We'll make it to the horizon
So pray for the best
And if it happens in our time
We'll be the last ones left
The last ones left

Heard the revolution comin' on a broken LCD
But nobody could tell if it was news or a prophecy
We were skeptical at first, but it's hard not to agree
'Cause once in a lifetime history repeats

If this is the dawning of a new world I don't know
Just don't you dare ask what I think the future holds
All the elders said there was nothing left to fight
But it never crossed my mind they could be right

Whatever happens in our time
Say you won't turn back
'Cause all the rebels have died out
But we're not like the rest
We'll make it to the horizon
So pray for the best
And if it happens in our time
We'll be the last ones left

They told me I was cynical, that I got too emotional
But I've seen all my heroes left behind
I never tried to pick a side, I said we'd always have to fight
It hardly crossed my mind I could be right

Whatever happens in our time
Say you won't turn back
'Cause all the rebels have died out
But we're not like the rest
We'll make it to the horizon
So pray for the best
And if it happens in our time
We'll be the last ones left

And if it happens in our time
Say you won't turn back
'Cause all the rebels have died out
But we're not like the rest
We'll make it to the horizon
So pray for the best
And if it happens in our time
We'll be the last ones left
The last ones left
The last ones left
Last ones left
We'll be the last ones left
Last ones left
