the resistance

we are descendants of the free, we are the soldiers of the cause, we shouted out the same decree, to hold the truth above the law, those were the nights to remember, now they're the nights to forget, we sang from may to september and we danced, while the city slept, i was born a restless soul, i never did what i was told, that old fire rages on, i hope it burns after i'm gone, i'm getting tired of the same old thing, it only takes one soul to make a change, it takes two young hearts to make it beat again, three long nights and you're on the mend, living, loving, swinging, ducking, we might fail but we have to try, i poked my finger in the public eye, those were the nights to remember, now they're the nights to forget, we sang from may to september and we danced, while the city slept, we are the only chance, this is our resistance, and if we fail then we all know, how it goes, it goes, how it goes, it goes, i navigate the mines we lay, and i'm comin' home but not today, i fought my way through the hungry mob, the mayor and his henchmen on the job, we faced-off like it was high noon, we both let fly and our aim was true, yeah!, those were the nights to remember, now they're the nights to forget, we sang from may to september and we danced, while the city slept, those were the nights to remember, now they're the nights to forget, we sang from may to september and we danced, while the city slept, so even if you can't see it, you can still believe in it, it's easier if you lose all the things that prevent you from seeing it, in the evening sun when the earth and sky are one, we all come undone and remember where we came from, so even if you can't see it, you can still believe in it, it's easier if you lose all the things that prevent you from seeing it, in the evening sun when the earth and sky are one, we all come undone and remember where we came from
