Smashing Pumpkins Lyrics

"United States"

Tired eyes
Closed for days
There's no regret
'Cause there's no place
I don't know
What I believe
But if I feel safe
What do I need?

Revolution
Revolution
Revolution blues
What will they do?
Revolution
Revolution blues
What will they do to me?
What will they do to me?
What will they do to me?
What will they do to me?

Dulcet tongues
Whisper fast
The future yearns
Right now's the past
Rouse me soon
The end draws nigh
Who's side are you on?
Your blood you cannot buy

Revolution
Revolution
Revolution blues
What will they do?
Revolution
Revolution
Revolution blues
What will they do to you?

We're alive
I feel alright
So tonight
I got to ask you why
Why tonight?
It's no surprise
I've got to survive

Freedom shines a light ahead
I'll lead the last charge from bed
They said my last rites
I don't have to run scared no more

Fight
I wanna fight
I wanna fight
Revolution
Tonight
I wanna fight
I wanna fight
Revolution
Tonight
Acolyte, acolyte
Do you wanna watch me die?

Let me be something good
Let me prove something real like I should
Let me embrace every single living thing
Let me be every single moment I ever misunderstood
