"Force Without Violence" lyrics

"Force Without Violence"

Our voices still silence
the plans that we've made
the dead cannot hear
all the prayers that we beg

Is there a force without violence
is there a catch with no hook
believing the lies while they fix all the books

Things will never change
if we remain the same
our hearts call us by name

These walls won't keep us safe
when they hold us back like barricades
It's time now to replace these walls
the walls around our heart

Theres no price we wont pay
and we steal it back just to give it away
its time now to replace these walls
the walls around our hearts

When fear breaks the silence
the choice has been made
we're listening now to sounds from the grave

This brave opposition
comes naturally
being exactly who we're supposed to be

Things will never change
if we remain the same
our hearts call us by name

These walls won't keep us safe
when they hold us back like barricades
It's time now to replace these walls
the walls around our heart

Theres no price we wont pay
and we steal it back just to give it away
its time now to replace these walls
the walls around our hearts

We'll take what we're given
we'll pay for our freedom
We'll take what we're given
we'll pray for our freedom

We'll take what we're given
we'll pray for our freedom
We'll take what we're given
we'll pay for our freedom

These walls won't keep us safe
when they hold us back like barricades
It's time now to replace these walls
the walls around our heart

Theres no price we wont pay
and we steal it back just to give it away
its time now to replace these walls
the walls around our hearts
