In Love With the Sound

I've lead with the wrong foot again

Crossing lines that no one asked you to defend.

You stare me down chanting conform or leave.

Conform or leave.

We've got our Old Pride and We've got our Honest Sleep,

We've got nights when the room came alive and reaffirmed our faith

That this can change lives.

We are the pulse that beats

And we are the breath that flows

And we will scream along until our heart stops.

And I no longer believe

That we are all in this together

So you can keep your basements

If it means we have to be better than our friends.

When did we start settling

When did we say good enough

If only we listened to all the words we sang,

Then I wouldn't have to remind you

Filled with fucking cliches

That I would rather

Play from the heart.
