The Jealous Sound - Change You lyrics

At first i caught the wave Looking for something genuine Had this feeling but i fought it You're damn right i'm choosing sides Like some tourist or a slave And their eyes were dead like mine Caught somewhere in between Lost in the great divide And i replayed this touching scene As i lied sick in compromise We all know what they bring We all know they decide And they want to change you And they want to change you And they want to turn your world around And they want to change you But sometimes the bravest thing Is just to lay down your arms and sing Can't do this on my own I can't do this on my own They curse as their collar dripped But the greatest reward has the greatest of risks But you already know, but you already know this At first we just began We had peace like chamberlain [?] But the marching orders came Yeah the marching orders in And their numbers stretched for days I tried in vain but i couldn't swim We all know what this means We watched it all begin And they want to change you And they want to change you And they want to turn your world around And they want to change you And they'll try to take you And they wanna break your heart They want to tear your world apart And they want to change you And then your eyes rolled back I felt the battle shift within Down this lonely path Down this lonely path again Honey you hold me close It's getting late, the lights are dim Consumed by so much wrath Down this path of mortal sin So honey you'll hold me back You'll hold me back again
