She knows better than to bite

Than to bite the hand that feeds

The hand that feeds her blood

That lets her do her deeds

She knows better than to ask

Than to ask for hallowed love

To be given some respect

By the planes above

I don’t see you but I see your spirit

I don’t want you I just want that spirit to be free

I just want your sweet divinity to be

Held up high for all the lands of earth to see

I don’t see you but I see your feelings

All the feelings that you have to hide

All the rebellion you keep inside

I just want to take you to where love abides

———

I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive I’m alive and fighting

I’m cornered into a corner and I’m biting

You’re alive, you’re alive, you’re alive, you’re alive and beautiful

You are hero of the story that’s not allowed to be told

We’re running through this town covered in blood

We’re breaking all the dams, bringing the flood

We’re running through this town, covered in blood

Is it ours? Is it not? Do we even care?

Lover, lover, I’ll always be there

———

I don’t see you but I see your spirit

I don’t want you I just want that spirit to be free

I just want your sweet divinity to be

Held up high for all the lands of earth to see

I don’t see you but I see your feelings

All the feelings that you have to hide

All the rebellion you keep inside

I just want to take you to where love abides

We are heroes

And she hates us two

We are legends

And she tells all to

Destroy all solidarity

Between all the minorities

Destroy the bonds of suicide

That will finally turn tides

Turn the tides against the rich

Put a crown upon each witch

Turn the tides against the rich

Make the devils of fate lose their stitch

———

I don’t see you but I see your spirit

I don’t want you I just want that spirit to be free

I just want your sweet divinity to be

Held up high for all the lands of earth to see

I don’t see you but I see your feelings

All the feelings that you have to hide

All the rebellion you keep inside

I just want to take you to where love abides

These stories that are not allowed to be told

By us

All the ways they are allowed to spit, scold

At us

All the way’s we’re not allowed to be bold

We must
