Mirah - Monument lyrics

Aren't you gonna come along? Aren't you gonna fight? Aren't you gonna 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 awhile, but it would anyways Let us stay and resolute with our voices raised We have a right to insist to be free and brave If that should cease to exist, I throw my heart away So, aren't you gonna come along? Aren't you gonna fight? Aren't you gonna 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 'til 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 and the beating down world Aren't you gonna come along? Aren't you gonna fight? Aren't you gonna 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
