we must talk in every telephone, get eaten off the web
DO FA SOL
we must rip out all the epilogues from the books that we have read
DO FA
and in the face of every criminal strapped firmly to a chair
DO SOL DO
we must stare, we must stare, we must stare
DO FA DO
we must take all of the medicines too expensive now to sell
DO FA DO
set fire to the preacher who is promising us hell
DO FA
and in the ear of every anarchist who sleeps but doesnt dream

while my mother waters plants, my father loads his gun

we must blend into the choir, singing static with the hole
DO FA
we must memorize nine numbers and deny we have a soul

we must run, we must run, we must run
DO FA DO
we must hold up in the bunker where the dying soldier laughs
DO FA SOL
we must stare into a crystal ball and only see the past

and in the caverns of tomorrow with only our flashlights and our love
DO SOL DO
we must plunge, we must plunge, we must plunge
FA
and then we'll get down there... you know way down to the very bottom of everything and
sing it oh my god we'll sing it, we'll sing it

all my morning is coming fast
DO SOL
the whole world is waking up

with the city buses swimming past
