The Resistance

We are descendants of the freeWe are the soldiers of the CauseWe shouted out the same decreeTo hold the truth above the lawThose were the nights to rememberNow they're the nights to forgetWe sang from May to September and we dancedWhile the city sleptI was born a restless soulI never did what I was toldThat old fire rages onI hope it burns after I'm goneI'm getting tired of the same old thingIt only takes one soul to make a changeIt takes two young hearts to make it beat againThree long nights and you're on the mendLiving, loving, swinging, duckingWe might fail but we have to tryI poked my finger in the public eyeThose were the nights to rememberNow they're the nights to forgetWe sang from May to September and we dancedWhile the city sleptWe are the only chanceThis is our resistanceAnd if we fail then we all knowHow it goes, it goesHow it goes, it goesI navigate the mines we layAnd I'm comin' home but not todayI fought my way through the hungry mobThe Mayor and his henchmen on the jobWe faced-off like it was High NoonWe both let fly and our aim was trueYeah!Those were the nights to rememberNow they're the nights to forgetWe sang from May to September and we dancedWhile the city sleptThose were the nights to rememberNow they're the nights to forgetWe sang from May to September and we dancedWhile the city sleptSo even if you can't see itYou can still believe in itIt's easier if you lost all the things that prevent you from feeling itIn the evening sun when the Earth and sky are oneWe all come undone and remember where we came fromSo even if you can't see itYou can still believe in itIt's easier if you lost all the things that prevent you from feeling itIn the evening sun when the Earth and sky are oneWe all come undone and remember where we came from
