Riot

Politics take, everything's fake
Everybody think again, see again
My ears ache, for heaven's sake
Everybody think again, see again
Politics take, everything's fake
Everybody think again
For heaven's sake
No way - we'll step up and unite
No way - we won't hate and divide
No way - we won't believe your lies
No way - cut open these shewn shut eyes!
This is, this is riot! This is R.I.O.T!
We were part of this pervert freak-shows
But your arguments are God damn hallow!
Feeding lies for us to swallow!
We stand tall! We won't follow you!
We'll rebuild our broken dreams
With the blood of your regime
Don't try to run away!
You can't escape this fray!
We'll rebuild our broken dreams
With the blood of your regime
Don't you dare to stand in our way!
Politics take, everything's fake
Everybody think again, see again
My ears ache, for heaven's sake
Everybody think again, see again
Insects whispering into your ear
Cruel lies of prejudice and constant fear
We are machines rusted deep to the core
It's time to act - like never before!
This is, this is riot! This is R.I.O.T!!
We'll rebuild our broken dreams
With the blood of your regime
Don't try to run away!
You can't escape this fray!
We'll rebuild our broken dreams
With the blood of your regime
Don't you dare to stand in our way!
We are (we are) alone (alone) in the dark
But we know that there is a sun above!
We are (we are) the calm before the storm
It's time to draw the battle-lines!
No way - we'll step up and unite
No way - we won't hate and divide
No way - we won't believe your lies
No way - cut open these shewn shut eyes!
This is, this is riot! This is R.I.O.T!
