What About Now

You wanna start a fire?

It only takes a spark

You gotta get behind the wheel

If you're ever gonna drive that car

If you wanna take a bite

You'd better have the teeth

If you wanna take that step

Then get up off of your knees

'Cause tonight

We're alive

Who stand for the restless

And the lonely?

For the desperate

And the hungry?

Down for the count

I'm hearing you now

For the faithful

The believer

For the faceless

And the teacher

Stand up and be proud

What about now?

You wanna start a fight?

You gotta take a swing

You gotta get your hands in the dirt

To see what the harvest will bring

You wanna raise your voice

Don't be scared to breathe

Don't be afraid to hurt

Don't be ashamed to need

'Cause tonight

We're alive

Who stand for the restless

And the lonely?

For the desperate

And the hungry?

Down for the count

I'm hearing you now

For the faithful

The believer

For the faithless

And the teacher

Stand up and be proud

What about now?

The leaves fall like reasons that drift through the seasons

Till dreams aren't just bare, dark, and gray

And all of your plans that slip right through your hands

Are just things that you'll take to your grave

Tonight

We're alive

Who stand for the restless?

For the lonely?

For desperate

And the hungry?

Down for the count

I'm hearing you now

For the faithful

The believer

For the faceless

And the teacher

Stand up and be proud

What about now?

What about now?

What about now?

What about now?
