Tristiania - Revolutions Lyrics
What am I, a toy in this toy store?Still looking for something to live forLast time I checked, I was a living thing tooBut enough with humanity, with that, I'm throughSeems all respect has gone out the windowNo more rights to us are-are endowedWe're no more than animals hereExcept for the night we raised our war cheersThe revolutions go round and round (round)In this room there's no sound (sound)All I can hear is my heart beating (beating)In my body there's no feeling (feeling)They shot me up full of whatever that was (was)And left me bloodstained on the rug (rug)And all because I'm a rebel (rebel)We started this revolution (revolution)And we'll end itWe lit up the sky like the sky's on fireThe police don't work because they're too tiredWe've got no food, no water that's runningThey expected us to be happy but that's not happeningNext up, we're in jail for things we didn't doRevolutions went farther than we intended them toPeople are dyingAnd soldiers are cryingAnd nobody knows what they're doingI'm five feet under the groundWith guards all aroundAnd all I can hear is the shootingThe revolutions go round and round (round)In this room there's no sound (sound)All I can hear is my heart beating (beating)In my body there's no feeling (feeling)They shot me up full of whatever that was (was)And left me bloodstained on the rug (rug)And all because I'm a rebel (rebel)We started this revolution (revolution)And we'll end itWe escaped the week after the shockMy body aches with all the blood I've lostThey experiment on prisoners, I learned that the hard wayBut now I can fly, so what can I saySix days later, the government collapsedWe're free from their tyranny, but look how much time's elapsedThe revolution's far from over, we have to start anewBut now they can't tell us what to doBecauseThe revolutions go round and round (round)In this room there's no sound (sound)All I can hear is my heart beating (beating)In my body there's no feeling (feeling)They shot me up full of whatever that was (was)And left me bloodstained on the rug (rug)And all because I'm a rebel (rebel)We started this revolution (revolution)And we'll end it
