Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We are here to save your life
The fool, the drunk, the child and his wife
We won't let the sun go down
We're gonna chase the demons out of town
Sing it when you feel alone
Backwards through the megaphone
Sing it to the ones you love
And the ones you'd like to be rid of
[Verse 2]
We are here to take the blame
To take the taunts and live the shame
We are here to make you feel
It terrifies you, but it's real
It will keep you up all night
And in the flood of morning light
Spilling out across your room
You say the words
We'll get there soon
[Verse 3]
The revolution wasn't bad
We hit the streets with all we had
A tape recording of the sound
Of the Velvet Underground
A K-Way jacket torn to shreds
And a dream inside our heads
And after changing everything
They couldn't tell we couldn't sing
[Verse 4]
After changing everything
They couldn't tell we couldn't sing
They couldn't tell we couldn't sing
And that changes everything
