Burning Treehouse 2k

Our country has been reduced to the smoking barrel of a gun
Pressed against the head of everything we do not understand
Hatred and famine put us in these dark waters
And we can't crawl out unless we drop our weapons
Let's stay up late my brothers, let's stay up late my sisters
We couldn't win our battles' but we're moving on and limping home
Let's lock our arms my brothers' let's lock our arms my sisters
They will break our bones before they will break us apart
They will erase us for kneeling in the national anthem
They will erase us because we ask too many questions
They have warred against tyrants for
Taking away the free will of the public
And tell me how is this any different?
There's an ever-growing trail of
Pipelines and rifles and locker room talk
And not a single person can tell me when it's going to stop
Let's stay up late my brothers' let's stay up late my sisters
We couldn't win our battles, but we're moving on and limping home
Let's lock our arms my brothers, let's lock our arms my sisters
They will break our bones before they will break us apart
We turn to fire
When hope doesn't have soil in which to thrive
If shelter can't learn to protect what's inside
Does that shelter deserve to survive?
We turn to fire
When hope doesn't have soil in which to thrive
If shelter can't learn to protect what's inside
Does that shelter deserve to survive?
Let's stay up late my brothers' let's stay up late my sisters
We couldn't win our battles, but we're moving on and limping home
Let's lock our arms my brothers, let's lock our arms my sisters
They will break our bones before they will break us apart
