the battle's end

Vintage Trouble

No way can I be the only one listening
To the sounds outside of our window's today
The voices, they scream. Alarms, they are whistling
And fire spiraling down the sky like it was rain

But hear me when I say I
I refuse to stand by
I refuse to stand by blind-eyed
Clutching my fears and covering my ears
So I don't hear
The crashing of tears

All hands in together
We are where it begins
Unite our stands. March to one drum
Before our time comes undone
Let us be the battle's end

The Battle'S End

This undying prejudice and social injustice
Demonstrate that we're still divided by the wall
Our supposed politics strangle love and happiness
They render us breathless and cold from it all

Hear me when I say I
I refuse to stand by
I refuse to stand by blind-eyed
Clutching my fear and covering my ears
So I don't hear
The crashing of tears

All hands in together
We are where it begins
Unite our stands. March to one drum
Before our time comes undone
Let us be the battle's end

The Battle'S End
The Battle'S End
The Battle'S End

Are we a people with broke down hearts?
Are we a story that just repeats?
And are we finished before we start?
Or are we the blind that now see?
