American Head Charge - Pledge Allegiance lyrics

We're just the braces amidst

These selfish trials and fits

Not so safe or scared or dumb is the rest

Our unravelling has just

Enough of it here to be

Drown propped up and watching

You stare at us pull you down

You read the news

You take the vows

You blame the costs

We play the chords

Now the only course

That traces an end

To the violence

Has left us without any

Chance to stand our ground

... Stand up and ...

March

Get back in line and

Fight

The time to start is

Now

Don't let yourself play the

Fool

There's no way out

Placatingly wound we search

Without purpose the game ends

Promise me today

So tomorrow's a new surprise

All these sores lingering

Shutdown and loving it

The greedy hands will lie

But we stand ready to strike

Yours' is the blood

Theirs' the first

The speed the greed

The machines and the paper dolls

We didn't want this

We didn't need this

We couldn't see it coming

But we're to blame for it

... Stand up and ...

March

Get back in line and

Fight

The time to start is

Now

Don't let yourself play the

Fool

There's no way out

Watch us coming

While you drop away

Bow your fucking heads

And pray for us

Cause it's my time

And it's our side

You can't stop us any longer

Bow your head

Pray for us

It's our time

It's our side
