Battleships

歌詞

When ordinary people do extraordinary things Reach up high, open heart and the hope that it brings If you sit wait and wonder from a lull to a sting Comes the sorrow and the pity of unsatisfied dreams Stars and stripes = the heroes Underdogs = the zeros Open heart = battleships Fighting for the weirdos Killing dreams = war crimes Living fear = kills time Patience is a virtue, unfortunate I lost mine De la soul fire The eye of the storm It's where boys become men and true freedom belongs Quick fall Easy fix Illusions and magic tricks Tried all the games you like You won't sink my battleship I can tell you why the caged bird sings Anyone and everyone That's the way that Amma loves I can tell you why the caged bird sings Anyone and everyone That's the way that I'm going to love Burn the fire plant the seed Free the heart kill the need Open wound and let it bleed I saw the truth and it set me free Lived the pain felt the burn Time will tell lessons learned Time will tell, time will tell And it's the stars in your eyes it's the songs that we sing The unknown of tomorrow and the hope that it brings In the darkness of night when it's just you and me With our dreams of tomorrow of a neon city There's a light at the end of the tunnel, they say For the first time in years I can see it today In the stars in your eyes In the songs that we sing The unknown of tomorrow and the hope that it brings Open heart = battleship You won't sink my battleship You won't You won't sink my battleship
