Army Of Me

nikkipher:

I can’t work 
There’s too many wars over seas 
There’s too much creative juice in me to focus in on that
So I’ll pace around, I’ll chat with your answering machine 
As my thoughts drift into the unclean 
I have to take a bath
You know, I know, they don’t know anything about you and me and all our kind 
Reasonless, meaningless superiority 
Slaughtered symphonies in our mind 
This college cattle call 
Ships off a hundred herds of young and wealthy work-horse mules
The teachers labeled all the dreamers fools 
“You’re not their fucking tool!” 
You and me can set them free together 
With one hand on each others, 
And the other on our weaponry,
Yeah 
You and me can set them free together 
All I need is your love 
And a revolution. 
And you, 
They fit you inside of a box 
They tie it with their proficient knots, 
To keep you in the dark 
They’re scared of your eyes ‘cause they radiate blue 
Never ever stop dreamin’ the way you do 
The future holds a fuck you for them all 
One day someday, 
I’ll make it out of this 
High school hell hole 
Fly away 
Don’t waste time being mad at everything, 
Freedom’s only a breath away 
Caps will fly up 
Signal the rifleman 
Drop your gown and jet right out 
The skies engulfed in our triumphant shouts 
Yeah shout it, shout it out 
You and me can set them free together 
With one hand on each others and the other on our weaponry yeah 
You and me can set them free together 
All I need is your love 
Let’s make love on top of broken blackboards 
I’ll slide the colored chalk around your every curve 
Our bodies warm and doused in perspiration 
I’ll dry your tears 
With torn up college applications 
Torn up college applications 
You and me can set them free together 
With one hand on each others and the other on our weaponry
You and me can set them free together 
All I need is your love 
And a revolution
