I spit my faith on the city pavement To keep a smile I bought my legs from the U.S. Government To keep me in line
We are the ones that keep you down We are the ones that warm the ground While our arms surround
I filled my head with another replacement To keep me high I shot my soul when they wanted to take it Your worst ain´t mine
We are the ones that keep you high We are the ones that warm the sky And you´re burning bright
She´s my river of sunshine, she´s my girl She can save the U.S., save the world She´s alright, I´ll be fine There´s no U.S., save your mind Save your mind
Come on
I´ll give you nothing if you´re just gonna waste it But that´s alright I´ll give you love if you´re wanting the taste that That leaves you behind We are the ones that keep you high We are the ones that burn your pride And you´re burning bright
You´re gonna make it You´re gonna suffer
I´ve been waiting for the sun to come Lead me throught the gates of Rome You´re gonna know they were never
Never yours to kill Oh no, they were never Never yours to kill
I´ve been waiting for the sun to come Show you all what´s being done You´re gonna know they were never Never yours to kill Oh no, they were never Never yours to kill
