You always take us down
and down and down
It’s what you saved us for
We’ll just keep spinning
‘round and ‘round and ‘round
That’s what you hate us for
Take time to seed it
Take time to plead it
Make yours a special case
Make a vision that we all embrace
Take time to own it
It’s yours, you’ve grown it
Demonstrate another way
Make this a special day
The truth only works
If no one gets hurt
If no one gets hurt
The truth doesn’t matter at all
Make space to feel it
To wash and peel it
Take life at your own pace
Doesn’t matter if you stop the race
Break chains and shackles
But choose your battles
Make love a lethal thing
Set it up and let them take a swing

The work doesn’t matter
The work doesn’t matter
The work doesn’t matter
The work doesn’t matter to you
Take dice and throw them
Win big and own them
Make yours the only game
They can play it if they want the same
Make this understated
Pride is overrated
Make yours the simple choice
Make a difference with a quiet voice
The truth only works
If no one gets hurt
If no one gets hurt
The truth doesn’t matter at all
You always take us down
and down and down
It’s what you saved us for
We’ll just keep spinning
‘round and ‘round and ‘round
That’s what you hate us for
