Love Is the Rebel Song
[Intro]
The fight is where we're born
To a hope that feels malformed
In a world at war love is the rebel song
Blue skies of my dreams
Remind me where to sing
In a world at war love is the rebel song
[Verse 1]
Grey skies and cloudy eyes and
All the world is sympathizing
All the world feels sorry for the dreamer in your head
White lies and alibis and
All the world is terrified, yeah
All the world is worried that the dreamеr might be dead
[Pre-Chorus]
If today knows no justice
I'm bеtter off staying maladjusted
[Chorus]
Sing to me a melody for the ones who will never win
Songs of dreamers, In-betweeners
The ones who will never fit in
Where the wars go on and on
Love is the rebel song
[Verse 2]
Back before it all began, yeah
You and I were children then, yeah
We took our dreams and we turned 'em in
And traded them for guns
Every day becomes a crisis
Left to our own devices
We traded in our dreams to fight this war that can't be won
[Pre-Chorus]
Even if hate is our loudest song
Yeah, I still refuse to sing along
[Chorus]
Yeah, sing to me a melody for the ones who will never win
Songs of dreamers, In-betweeners
The ones who will never fit in
Where the wars go on and on
Love is the rebel song
[Bridge]
Which is best to win
A captive or a friend?
In a world at war
Love is the rebel song
[Chorus]
Sing to me a melody for the ones who will never win
Songs of dreamers, In-betweeners
The ones who will never fit in
[Outro]
If today we don't belong
Let us sing tomorrow's song
In a world that's been at war
Love is the rebel song
