So we set it on fire
Step back and watch it burn
Let the smoke fill the sky
And make the world learn

We will not be forgotten
Born into this broken world
We will rise above
We will not be deterred

The young and the dying
The hope of tomorrow
We’ll command our armies
Of heartbreak and sorrow

We’ll remind you who we are
We’ll storm into the streets
We’ll capture your attention
And steal away your peace

We’ll march to the beat of our hearts
The ****** and the broken
We’ll show our strength in numbers
And speak the words unspoken

Our only hope is this:
To awaken your compassion
For in this place of pretend perfection
There’s life you can’t imagine
