Civil War Lyrics by Work In Progress

2017

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Shout it out, you know you want to and
Stand up now, you know you've got to and
Fight the crowd, like you ought to
There's nowhere left to go. The world is
Compromised, over-comprised
Too much franchise, too many lies
Too complicated for our own good
You've got to speak out for what you should

[Pre-Chorus]
Open your eyes, look out and see
Rise now and set the people free
There's no one left, just you and me
Get up and fight for what you believe!

[Chorus]
There's nowhere left for you now
Go ahead we're gonna takе you down
And I don't know or care quite how
But we'rе coming for you now
So throw your
Cannonballs and shoot your guns
There's nothin' left you've got but to run
And we'll look into your eyes and watch you bleed
Until you set us free

[Verse 2]
Ring the bells, sound the alarms
The time has come for us to take charge and
Fight! (fight!) Fight for all that we need
Now Win! (win!) for our democracy
So get out of line, go overtime, push past your prime
There's no such thing as more crime
There's light coming from lantern three
Not one for land or two for sea

[Pre-Chorus]
Pick a new fight, get out and see
There's nothing left for you to leave
The fire's dead in our country so
Lift the curse to let us be!

[Chorus]
There's nowhere left for you now
Go ahead we're gonna take you down
And I don't know or care quite how
But we're coming for you now
So throw your sticks and stones to
Break our bones
There's no love for you here no more
And you'll look into our eyes and then you'll see
The power that runs free

[Bridge]
Break the walls and push on through
The bureaucracy needs no proof
The light that keeps on shining through
Is light that's made more me and you and
Leave the owners to their beasts
There's only room now for the peace

[Chorus]
There's nowhere left for you now
Go ahead we're gonna take you down
And I don't know or care just how
But we're coming for you now
So throw your sticks and stones to
Break our bones
There's no love for you here no more
And you'll look into our eyes and finally see
The power of the free

[Outro]
