Intro

  You've got the words to change a nation

  but you're biting your tongue

  You've spent a life time stuck in silence

  afraid you'll say something wrong

  If no one ever hears it how we gonna learn your song?

  So come on, come on

  Come on, come on

  You've got a heart as loud as lions

  So why let your voice be tamed?

  Baby we're a little different

  there's no need to be ashamed

  You've got the light to fight the shadows

  so stop hiding it away

  Come on, Come on

  I wanna scream till the words dry out

  while we sing away the blues

  making sure that we remember yeah

  then we're breaking all the rules
