All our pretty roads fairy tales and crowns broken on the floor
All our little words love and peace and love spoken with a sword
We say overthrow the government put a new one up instead
~CHORUS~
If you can overthrow then overthrow
If you can overthrow your soul
If you can overthrow then overthrow
If you can overthrow your soul
~VERSE~
Tell me how it goes the one about the war the war that killed the king
Our hearts are still the same stone and ice and steel lifeless hollow things
You say overthrow the government who will save us from yourself
~CHORUS~
If you can overthrow then overthrow
If you can overthrow your soul
If you can overthrow then overthrow
If you can overthrow yourself yourself yourself
~BRIDGE~
Take me down and lock me up you can't change my head
rem7
You can't change my heart
When this old life is done
Will we still be the stubborn souls we always were
Today is our last chance to turn around turn around
Yourself yourself yourself
~OUTRO CHORUS~
If you can overthrow then overthrow
If you can overthrow your soul
If you can overthrow then overthrow
If you can overthrow your soul
Peace, Love, I'm out.
