Instinct Lyrics - Strike Anywhere

So I'll write these words now 

for you my friend 

here after all this time 

we may never sing this one 

it's just here as a light to help you 

When the power goes out 

like the moments you might 

shake yourself awake 

from those horrible dreams 

the only ones we never talk about 

The glare of madness 

in grown-ups' eyes 

the rage that takes 

the whole room 

by surprise 

this vicious trap 

the male cultural disguise 

is the one we fight against 

We Go, We Go, We Go 

the one we fight against 

We Go, We Go, We Go 

So I'll write these words now 

for you my friend 

here after all this time 

we may never sing this one 

it's just here 

as a light to help you 

The sickness 

the silence 

as you hide in your room 

wishing so hard they'd forget 

you're alive 

but 

you're alive 

so the sight of broken things 

won't mean a pound of flesh 

and the time you speak up 

won't be repaid by fists 

praying not to be missed 

the night you ran away 

We Go, We Go, We Go 

the night you ran away 

We Go, We Go, We Go 

So I'll write these words now 

for you my friend 

here after all this time 

we may never sing this one 

it's just here 

as a light to help you 

This violence passes for 

an apology 

the trickle down 

in our society 

This is for the peace 

you never had 

This is for the peace 

we never had 

This is for the peace 

we never had 

How do we guard the door 

against your Dad? 

We go, We go, We go 

the night you ran away 

We go, We go, We go 

So I'll write these words now 

for you my friend 

here after all this time 

we may never sing this one 

it's just here 

as a light to help you
