"Lions At The Gate" lyrics

"Lions At The Gate"
(feat. Tom Morello)

Tear down the lions
Tear down the lions
Tear down the lions
Tear down the lions

Fighting for the people
Lots of little ones
Fighting for the people
Broken little thorns
Send them off to war at will
Send them off to fight
We turn the page when they're out of sight

Tear down the lions at the gate
Tear down the lions at the gate

Safety in numbers
We're afraid of brothers
This is our battle
Time to dismantle
The lions at the gate

Crying for the people
You can even hear
Crying for the people
Drowning in their tears
Shell shocked and nowhere bound
They tell us in their eyes
With no help it's no damn surprise

Tear down the lions at the gate (Tear down the lions)
Tear down the lions at the gate

Safety in numbers
We're afraid of brothers
This is our battle
Time to dismantle
The lions at the gate

Safety in numbers
We're afraid of brothers
This is our battle
Time to dismantle
The lions at the gate
