[Verse 1]
A million times
I've tried to find the string of words
That can finally set us free
But they're a grenade stuck between my teeth
Pull the pin, it could be the end of me
Risk it all for just one night
To see those fists up in the sky
This city lives to fight
We're gravity defying, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
We're gravity defying
[Chorus]
Oh, I know that you've been waiting
For me to start a war
And I know that you feel jaded, jaded
Because jaded is what you are (Oh-oh!)
Right now, you're suffocating
It's time to cut the cord (Oh-oh!)
No need to be feeling jaded, jaded
We're taking back the world
[Refrain]
(Night sky, night sky)
[Verse 2]
Empires rise, leaders are born
Behind your eyes, I see the perfect storm
There's prophecy, there's consequence
A little faith can make a difference
[Chorus]
(Oh-oh!) I know that you've been waiting
For me to start a war (Oh-oh!)
And I know that you feel jaded, jaded
Because jaded is what you are (Oh-oh!)
Right now, you're suffocating
It's time to cut the cord (Oh-oh!)
No need to be feeling jaded, jaded
We're taking back the world
[Bridge]
You're on the edge of destiny
A chance to live out what you dream
It's time to get the message out
And sing it through the streets
This is not a fantasy
A chance to live out what we dream
It's time to get the message out
Everyone in every town
Sing it through the streets
[Chorus]
(Oh-oh!) I know that you've been waiting
For me to start a war (Oh-oh!)
And I know that you feel jaded, jaded
Because jaded is what you are (Oh-oh!)
Right now, you're suffocating
It's time to cut the cord (Oh-oh!)
No need to be feeling jaded, jaded
We're taking back the world (Oh-oh!)
[Outro]
You're on the edge of destiny (Oh-oh!)
A chance to live out what we dream (Oh-oh!)
It's time to get the message out (Oh-oh!)
Because it's time to start a war
