Album: Open Your Eyes and Dream - Single

Verse 1
Mending broken boot straps
Marching to the sea
Marred by myths of meritocracy
They honor the exceptions
That only prove the rule
Our shambled lives are shadowed by a cruel silence

Pre-Chorus
Open your eyes and dream
Devise a solidarity
Open your eyes and dream
Devise a solidarity

Chorus
Knowing nothing has to be like this (Be like this)
Knowing nothing has to be like this (Be like this)

Verse 2
Sweating in the swelter
Swallowing our rage
Break our backs for half a living wage
We've watched this film too often
Stop waiting for a twist
Our calls for change
Are always answered with violence

Pre-Chorus
Open your eyes and dream
Devise a solidarity
Open your eyes and dream
Devise a solidarity

Chorus
Knowing nothing has to be like this (Be like this)
Knowing nothing has to be like this (Be like this)

Instrumental Break

Chorus
Knowing nothing has to be like this
Knowing nothing has to be like this
Knowing nothing has to be like this
Knowing nothing has to be like this (Be like this)

Outro
Open your eyes and dream
Devise a solidarity
Open your eyes and dream
Devise a solidarity
