Say It Now

Original

Our history is clothed in blood like a red

Corvette.

It's hard to ignore, but easy to wind up dead.

Our hands are in the fire like a child who hasn't learned to regret.

While we're trying to put a smile on for the cameras inside our heads.

Say it now, say it now, say it now. I'm on my knees.

I'm a faded army in the sight of my enemy.

Oh, say it now, say it now, say it now.

I'm on my knees.

I can only stand when your outstretched hands are holding me.

Our attention is the last frontier on the way out west.

We should be circling the wagons, but we're beating on our puffed-up chests.

In the agony that's tracing our steps, we know we've already lost.

There's a way in every desert where the children all can finally cross.

Say it now, say it now, say it now. I'm on my knees.

I'm a faded army in the sight of my enemy.

Oh, say it now, say it now, say it now.

I'm on my knees.

I can only stand when your outstretched hands are holding me.

The valley's broken, the battle's won.

But the war seems like it's just begun.

Say it now, say it now, say it now.

I'm on my knees.

I'm a faded army in the sight of my enemy.

Oh, say it now, say it now, say it now.

I'm on my knees.

I can only stand when your outstretched hands are holding me.
