Hearts Like Ours

Into the cold, we were thrown
Young and blind
Eyes cast towards the sky
They kicked through the walls with fear in their eyes
Searching for flames, but finding only light
Black boots
The floors were shaking
Cast out
Our hearts were breaking
But that's the chance we're taking
Living in a world of our own making
They try to make us scatter
Try to push us away
As they raise up their barriers, we'll find another way
Can't bleach the color
No, you can't silence the sound
As long as we still are breathing, we'll share this joy that we have found

We're gonna dance together
Hold each other closely, long into the night
Don't do what they say
They wanna take it away
We've got to do what we feel's right
We're gonna live together
Try and find that better life
Can't hear what they say with their voices of hate
Just take my hand and walk me towards the light

We don't know where we'll go or how we'll rise above
We just feel we have the right to live as we like and love who we love
Walking in time on common ground
The only thing we worship is the color and sound
Run through the woods like wolves on the prowl
Hunting for space and living by the hour
You never really lose a friend, they just change their space
So another shining heart may come and take their place
Let's raise our banners
Let's sound off our horns
Our castle is rebuilt and our kingdom is reborn

We're gonna stay together
Strong enough to overcome the pain and the strife
If your heart can reach mine, I will be with you all the days of your life
We're gonna dance together
Never to tire
Never to break
We've got nothing to lose
Nothing to win
You get what you give when you need what you take

I remember your face when we were new
I wanna see it again
When we promised each other we'd be together 'till the end
They still build us our boxes so we'll all play the same
While they tear down our houses and fight wars in our names
Nothing always changes and time will sweep us away
I'll forget the most who leave but cherish those that would stay
Stay
Stay

We're gonna live forever
Hearts like ours are blessed with eternal youth
Don't do what they say
They wanna steal it away
This light inside, no one can take
Joyful hearts are a form of resistance
Can't buy it
Can't beat it if you don't believe
It's us in the past
It's us in the future
It's us together
It's all that we need
Need
Need
It's all that we need
