and lately well i ve been feeling down it s like there s no more room for a hopeful sound i need to believe in something new to believe in me like i believe in you we ve had our hands held much too tight we ve been more wrong than we ve ever been right can t place our hopes on a hanging chad we need much more than just one punk rock band clenched fists and blackened eyes break wide open our heads and fix our broken minds we re crossing fingers and we hope for the best we ve lost our anger we ve been suppressed and we can t just hold our breath sit back and sing along pretend that it s all okay when we know we re wrong and this is not a call to arms just a hope that we might try to use our heads and open eyes we have more sense than lies x 2 and nothing changes if we don t change ourselves bombs burst my trust away red glares and empty stares we need something to say we need to start to care we must change x 2 ourselves
