Monument - Mirah

Aren’t you going to come along?

Aren’t you going to fight?

Aren’t you going to hold your hands up to the light?

If you feel an emptiness

If you want to hide

Think about the blood

That’s pumping keeping you alive

We’ve got it all worked out

The plans all made

If we believe in the fight

Then we’re all saved

It’s gonna hurt for a while

But it would anyway

Let us stand resolute

With our voices raised

We have a right to insist

To be free and brave

If that should cease to exist

I’d throw my heart away

Aren’t you going to come along?

Aren’t you going to fight?

Aren’t you going to hold your hands up to the light?

If you feel an emptiness

If you want to hide

Think about the blood

That’s pumping keeping you alive

It’s a long long way

To the promised land

So try where you are

Do what you can

You belong to what you understand

So teach yourself how to demand

The monument that you deserve

For rising up in a beaten down world

Aren’t you going to come along?

Aren’t you going to fight?

Aren’t you going to hold your hands up to the light?

If you feel an emptiness

If you want to hide

Think about the blood

That’s pumping keeping you alive
