I spit my faith on the city pavement

To keep a smile

I bought my legs from the US Government

To keep me in line

We are the ones that keep you high

We are the ones that warm the sky

And you're burning bright



I filled my head with another replacement

To keep me high

I shot my soul when they wanted to take it

Your worst ain't mine

We are the ones that keep you down

We are the ones that warm the ground

While our arms surround



She's my river of sunshine, she's my girl

She can save the US, save the world

Yeah she's alright, I'll be fine

There's no US, save your mind

Save your mind come on



I'll give you nothin if you're just gonna waste it

But that's alright

I'll give you love if your wanting the taste that leaves you behind

We are the ones that keep you high

We are the ones that burn your pride

And you're burning bright



I've been waitin for the sun to come, lead me through the gates of Rome

Your gonna know they were never, never yours to kill

Oh no they were never, never yours to kill



I've been waitin for the sun to come, show you all what's being done

Your gonna know they were never, never yours to kill

Oh no they were never, never yours to kill
