LIKE A SONG

U2

Like a song I have to sing,

I sing it for you.

Like the words I have to bring,

I bring then to you.

And in leather, lace, or chains,

We stake our claim,

Revolution once again

But I won't,

I won't wear it on my sleeve.

I can see through this expression

And you know I don't believe.

 

I'm too old to be told, exactly who are you?

Tonight, tomorrow's too late.

And we love to wear a badge, a uniform,

And we love to fly a flag.

But I won't    let others live in hell,

As we divide against each other and fight amongst ourselves.

 

Too set in our ways to try to rearrange,

Too right to be wrong, in this rebel song.

Let the bells ring out

Let the bells ring out

Is there nothing left, is there

Is there nothing,      is there nothing left

Is honesty what you want?

A generation without name, ripped and torn,

Nothing to lose, nothing to gain,

Nothing at all.

And if you can't help yourself,

Well take a look around you,

when others need your time.

You say it's time to go it's your time.

 

Angry words won't stop the fight, two wrongs won't make it right.

A new heart is what I need, oh God, make it bleed,

Is there nothing left?
