Laura Jane Grace - Reinventing Axl Rose lyrics

"Reinventing Axl Rose" (Intro:] (whoa, whoa...) [Verse 1:] We want a band that plays loud and hard every night That doesn't care how many people are counted at the door That would travel one million miles and ask for nothing more than a plate of food and a place to rest They'd strike chords that cut like a knife It would mean so much more than t-shirts or a ticket stub They'd stop at nothing short of a ma**acre Everyone would leave with the memory that there was no place else in the world And this was where they always belonged [Chorus:] (whoa, whoa...) [Verse 2:] We would dance like no one was watching With one fist in the air Our arena just basements and bookstores across an underground America With this fire we could light [Verse 3:] Just gimme a scene where the music is free And the beer is not the life of the party There's no need to sh** talk or impress 'Cause honesty and emotion are not looked down upon And every promise that's made and bragged Is meant if not kept We'd do it all because we have to, not because we know why Beyond a gender, race, and cla**, we could find what really holds us back [Chorus:] (whoa, whoa...) [Verse 3:] Let's make everybody sing That they are the beginning and ending of everything That we all are stronger than everything they taught us that we should fear
