America

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You've been hanging your conscious on the fence

'Cause you can't hold it

An empty promise laid to rest

A life is stolen

And there will be no consequence

For what you've broken

Don't you know, what your father said?

We are the only

We are the brave

We are America, but

We are the blame

Stand up! Stand up!

Can you hear me now?

All I! All I

Really want now is

Your voice! Your voice

Screaming out loud, saying

We can make it, oh we can make it

Fists up! Fists up!

Don't put your hands down!

All I! All I

Really want now is

Your voice! Your voice

Screaming out loud, saying

We can make it, or we can make it

We've been biting our tongues for too long

And they know it

They told us that hope would carry on

They really had us going

And there will be no consequence

For your simple hypnosis

Don't you know, what your father said?

We are the only

We are the brave

We are America, but

We are the blame

Stand up! Stand up!

Can you hear me now?

All I! All I

Really want now is

Your voice! Your voice

Screaming out loud, saying

We can make it, oh we can make it

Fists up! Fists up!

Don't put your hands down!

All I! All I

Really want now is

Your voice! Your voice

Screaming out loud, saying

We can make it, oh we can make it
