Mikey tell me something anything will do
|
been driving around these tired streets for so long
|
I find courage when you speak of what we're bound to
|
Some days it's slow motion films
|
listen close as the blood loses pace in your veins
|
spit to escape the taste of a life that was out to get you
|
|
other days there's a fire hearts burn hot
|
coals turn worries to ashes
|
and our voices are raised in one faithful protest
|
we'll never give up, never give in
|
keep on fighting we never give up, never give in
|
|
Felt like nothing ever mattered till you all came
|
And if I could do this all again I wouldn't change a thing
|
|
Some nights I crawled so deep into this bottle
|
feared the worst that maybe someday I'd never get out alive
|
this is the worst that you have ever seen of me
|
I'm promising change, promising change in due time
|
