And curse me with your tongue
C5 Dm
We cast us aside (we cast us aside)
Bbmaj7 Dm
We silence our plea (we silence our plea)
Bbmaj7 Dm/F Dm/G
But the system that terrifies you
Bbmaj7
Should terrify me

We burn at our stakes

We die by our swords
G5 D5
We choke in our trenches
C5 B5 F5 G5
We drown in our wars
D5
We're locked in our chains
F5 D5
Though we long to be free
G5 D5
We keep building walls
C5 B5 G5 F5
Till it's so hard to see
G5 F5 D5
We are one
C5 A5 C5 F5
with everything
D5 G5 F5
We are one
D5 F5 G5 C5
But it's so hard to see
[Chorus]
