[Verse 1]
If all the world were innocent and true
One flag unfurled
A belief in all we do
Wrong your rights
A change from what you are
Refracting light
A billion tiny scars
Stand in line - but if you want to run
Just say the word

[Verse 2]
On your mark with reasons not to start
On your guard with terror in your heart
Fall apart
It comes as no surprise
Fail to chart
A gauntlet of goodbyes
Hold the line
But if you feel the need
Just say the word

And say the word

[Bridge]
Bleed your life
Your innocence will do
Read your rights
Believe in something true
There've been times when you don't even know
Ignore the signs pointing where you'll go
Why you came doesn't matter anymore
Just say the word
And say the word

Breathe
Defecting from the ranks
Free
Elude the armored tanks and break away

[Outro]
On your mark with reasons not to start
On your guard with terror in your heart
For your time, you weren't that bad at all
Sad you lied, but no one's keeping score
Stand in line, but if you want to run
Just say the word

And say the word

Just say the word

Just say the word
