Lyrics
Victory Gin
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.
This is not a song for lovers
It’s for a feeling that exists in everyone
Sometimes the feeling needs expression
Don’t let them think that they have got you on the run
We all get the sunshine
Piped in through the phone line
Direct from the greater mind
Stare into the fire
Through optical wires
Burned into our hearts
From a greater mind
We are not afraid of anyone
I defy anyone to tell me I am wrong
We are not afraid of anyone
I defy anyone to tell me I am wrong
Look at everybody here
They might be dandies, rude boys, aristos or queer
But when all is said and done
You can bet your bottom dollar they’re still dab-hands with a gun
Shackled by wires
Prank calls and liars
Only your flesh and blood is real, my love
We are not afraid of anyone
I defy anyone to tell me I am wrong
We are not afraid of anyone
I defy anyone to tell me I am wrong
Deeper than shadows
Arrive when the light goes
Pulling her down
Into your mind
Blue lights and sirens
With bullets behind them
It's getting rough
'Cause it's the time before revolution
We are not afraid of anyone
I defy anyone to tell me I am wrong
We are not afraid of anyone
I defy anyone to tell me I am wrong
We are not afraid of anyone
I defy anyone to tell me I am wrong
We are not afraid of anyone
I defy anyone to tell me I am wrong
