"Notes On Pulling The Sky Down" lyrics
"Notes On Pulling The Sky Down"
We are fighting a war
Here we come now living in a new age
Where the roles are set to tear us apart
Here we come now fighting for a living wage
(It's time)
The pleas from the politicians to the poor
Do nothing but distort the truths they tire of
The system is built to keep us from ourselves
You ask what I can give?
I've got nothing for you
But everything for a better way
So you demand
That we live under your laws
Blinded for the fact we are at war
At war
We are at war
At war
At war
Do we settle for the system
Or do we fight for our own voice?
Will we force them all to listen?
It's all coming down to one choice
Do we settle for the system
Or do we fight for our own voice?
Will we force them all to listen?
It's just all coming down to one choice
So I wait for a change to come
And I ask myself why
Does everyday the sky remain over our heads?
Over our heads?
So would it be impossible to tear it down?
To tear it down?
Would it be impossible to tear it down?
To tear it down?
Down
I've got nothing for you
So you ask what I can give?
I've got nothing for you
But everything for a better way
So you demand
That I live under your laws
Still blinded for the fact we are at war
At war
At war
At war
So here we come now living in a new age
Where the roles are set to tear us apart
Here we come now fighting for a living wage
(It's time)
The pleas from the politicians to the poor
Do nothing but distort the tired truths
The system is built on you
How long must we wait?
