Lyrics This Beautiful Republic

This Beautiful Republic

No Turning Back

She's a bright light

Look for too long and you'll go blind

Losing sight of the line

She's a bright light

It's hard to run once she's inside

While you feel alive, she's watching you die

The fight is closing in

It's time to hold our ground

No turning back, no turning back

The longer that we run, the weaker we become

No turning back, no turning back

We've been taught that conflict is a lack of tolerance

And tolerance today is King

I have learned that all the things that plague us chase us down

No matter how well we hide, no matter how far we run

The fight is closing in

It's time to hold our ground

No turning back, no turning back

The longer that we run, the weaker we become

No turning back, no turning back

Give me liberty from death

Give me liberty or give me death

The fight is closing in

It's time to hold our ground

No turning back, no turning back

The longer that we run, the weaker we become

No turning back, no turning back
