"The Obvious" lyrics

"The Obvious"

By the moonlight we arise with a waking
Knees not shaking, sharp and a shaping art
In the dawns rays, a dim breaking
Truth ablaze in perfect phase
Over, taking it for the taking
For what's not bought is what's not made
No, we will not take it, another lie we will not take it
The future it'll be much better
Those in chains will be unfettered
And the lights they'll be shining above the tree line
There's no defeat when we join each other here
I heard it through the walls of the station
Steel and stone could not contain us
Beyond above the boundaries of a nation
Still no stone could quite contain us

It's obvious
It's obvious

By the moonlight we arise with a waking
Knees not shaking, sharp and a shaping art
In the dawns rays, a dim breaking
Truth ablaze in perfect phase
I heard it through the walls of the station
Steel and stone could not contain us
Beyond above the bounds of a nation
Steel and stone could not contain us

La da da da da la da da da da da da
Could not contain us
La da da da da la da da da da da da
Could not contain us
