Overthrow

All our pretty roads, fairy tales and crowns, broken on the floorAll our little words, love and peace and love, spoken with a swordWe say overthrow the government, put a new one up instead- Chorus –If you can overthrow then overthrow,If you can overthrow your soulIf you can overthrow then overthrow,If you can overthrow your soulTell me how it goes, the one about the war, the war that killed the kingOur hearts are still the same, stone and ice and stealLifeless hollow thingsYou say overthrow the government, who will save us from yourself?- Chorus –If you can overthrow then overthrow,If you can overthrow your soulIf you can overthrow then overthrow,If you can overthrow yourself, yourself, yourselfTake me down and lock me up, you can’t change my head, you can’t change my heartWhen this old life is done, will we still be the stubborn souls we always were?Today is our last change to turn around, to turn aroundYourself, yourself, yourself- Chorus –If you can overthrow then overthrow,If you can overthrow your soulIf you can overthrow then overthrow,If you can overthrow your soul
