"Revolution" lyrics

"All revolutions are impossible until they happen, then they become inevitable"

[Verse 1:]
It's not enough to kill the past, be blind to history
And all at once there's a black cloud coming made of gasoline
I see that you have set the price, made sure that nothing's free
One way to move forward is to learn who's stopping me

[Chorus:]
Yeah! this is the end, this is the end, calling for revolution
Yeah! this is the end, this is the end, calling for revolution
Burn! like a fire in the rain, like a fire in the rain
This is the end, this is the end, calling for revolution. Yeah!

[Verse 2:]
We looked at the price tag, and it's one we can't afford
We were taught that progression means accumulating more
Yeah, it's not to protect ourselves, so why are we at war?
And isn't it obvious? We're adding up the score

[Chorus:]
Yeah! this is the end, this is the end, calling for revolution
Yeah! this is the end, this is the end, calling for revolution
Burn! like a fire in the rain, like a fire in the rain
This is the end, this is the end, calling for revolution. Yeah!

[Bridge:]
I'll never turn my back on where i'm from
I'll never stop believing. I'll always love my home
But from that love I've noticed who's been burned
I've noticed who's still bleeding, it seems the fire has grown

So from now on I pledge allegiance
to a world that's so much different
Where no one suffers, everyone is free
Revolution starts with me

Revolution! Revolution! Calling for a revolution!
Revolution! Revolution! Calling for!

Yeah! this is the end, this is the end, calling for revolution
Yeah! this is the end, this is the end, (this is the end..)

[Chorus:]
Yeah! this is the end, this is the end, calling for revolution
Yeah! this is the end, this is the end, calling for revolution
Burn! like a fire in the rain, like a fire in the rain
This is the end, this is the end, calling for revolution. Yeah!

[Outro:]
Calling for revolution! Yeah! Calling for revolution!
(Time For Revolution!) (Time For Revolution!)

"One of the things that's happened, is that this movement has acquired an air of inevitability" [- L. Day]
