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 down

We are the ones that warm the ground

While our arms surround



I filled my head with another replacement

To keep me high

I shot my soul when you wanted to take it

Your worst ain't mine



We are the ones that keep you high

We are the ones that warm the sky

And you're burning bright



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

She can save the US and save the world

She's alright I'll be fine

There's no US save your mind

Save your mind come on



I'll give you nothing if you're just gonna waste it

But that's alright

I'll give you love if you wanting the taste that

That leaves it behind



We are the ones that keep you high

We are the ones that burn your pride

And you're burning bright



You're gonna make it

You're gonna suffer



I've been waiting for the sun to come

Lead me through the gates of Rome

You're gonna know they were never

Never yours to kill

Oh no they were never

Never yours to kill



I've been waiting for the sun to come

Show you all what's being done

You're gonna know they were never

Never yours to kill

Oh no they were never

Never yours to kill
