The Knot in Your Stomach

Don't write us off
Don't force our words
We'll work together
We will be heard
We'll shout it from rooftops
Hold hands in the street
We'll bring it together
We'll make it complete

Let the knot in your stomach subside
Some people live all of their lives
And never choose a side
Come the night we'll drift to sleep
We buried our weapons today
We will only know peace

Far from the violence
Far from the hate
A new revolution
A new type of state
We'll shout it from rooftops
Hold hands in the street
We'll bring it together
We'll make it complete

Let the knot in your stomach subside
Some people live all of their lives
And never choose a side
Come the night we'll drift to sleep
We buried our weapons today
We will only know peace

I took the first step
Dropped my fists, bowed my head
And I hated myself
For the blood that I shed
In my rage I was weak, but now I am strong
Moving on and on 'til the feeling's gone

Let the knot in your stomach subside
Some people live all of their lives
And never choose a side
Come the night we'll drift to sleep
We buried our weapons today
We will only know peace
