It's all been said and done If we aren't dying we're numb We should put down our guns Cause all we need is love Ignorance is queen The world is cold and mean And when I'm dead and gone You won't remember me Equality is all we yearn Conformity is all we've learned Convince ourselves that we still care Sing the same old song The tune that gives us hope Reminds us that we're ****** Anchor in the water Feet tied in the rope You're a good one of you strive And even better if you die We have faith you'll break the surface Just know that we're proud Humanity is worth it We all know you'll drown Remember you in honor Because you soldiered on Even though you're gone It's all been said and done History a struck match The future A broken record In between We still believe It just keeps getting better Honesty A ghost no one seems to see Denying all the signs Refusing to believe It's all been said before Recycled metaphors Intrigue you all with rhyme Sing the same old song That whisper in the wind Instilling you with purpose it's bestowed time and again Inside you lies the power to make that final change Slit there throats Or when there hearts I guess it's all the same Remember you were chosen We have faith you'll stand your ground So beautifully heroic when the same wind knocks you Down Remember me, Or don't. I'll exist again. Honesty's ghost A message in the wind

It's all been said and done If we aren't dying we're numb We should put down our guns Cause all we need is love Ignorance is queen The world is cold and mean And when I'm dead and gone You won't remember me Equality is all we yearn Conformity is all we've learned Convince ourselves that we still care Sing the same old song The tune that gives us hope Reminds us that we're ****** Anchor in the water Feet tied in the rope You're a good one of you strive And even better if you die We have faith you'll break the surface Just know that we're proud Humanity is worth it We all know you'll drown Remember you in honor Because you soldiered on Even though you're gone It's all been said and done History a struck match The future A broken record In between We still believe It just keeps getting better Honesty A ghost no one seems to see Denying all the signs Refusing to believe It's all been said before Recycled metaphors Intrigue you all with rhyme Sing the same old song That whisper in the wind Instilling you with purpose it's bestowed time and again Inside you lies the power to make that final change Slit there throats Or when there hearts I guess it's all the same Remember you were chosen We have faith you'll stand your ground So beautifully heroic when the same wind knocks you Down Remember me, Or don't.
