I wanna start a revolution
With this six-string
Like it was the sixties
Still haven't found a real solution
Don't you understand
They're doing all they can
Open up your eyes
It ain't that dark in the night
See the things unseen
And believe
What you don't want to believe
Is it alright
Yea is it alright
If we're turning our backs now
Behind us our old town
And let the rivers keep running dry
Is it alright
Tell me, in fifteen years will it be fine
If we keep hanging our heads down
Content with the worn routes
Where we just keep buying all the lies
I wanna start a revolution
Right here on this page
Without no wars being waged
Turn off your television
There ain't results without action
I'm done being passive
You get all that you need
You don't feel anything
Should we bottle up our dreams
And lead the lives they want us to lead?
Is it alright
Yea is it alright
If we're turning our backs now
Behind us our hometown
And let the rivers keep running dry
Is it alright
Tell me, in fifty years will we be fine
If we keep hanging our heads down
Content with the worn routes
Where we just keep selling our own lives
I wanna start a revolution
I wanna start a revolution
I wanna start a revolution (revolution)
Don't you want to start a revolution? (revolution)
