You Won't - Revolutionaries Lyrics

“REVOLUTIONARIES”
She was a young girl in motion
another ripple in the ocean
gathering up all of her force into a wave

Another year or four and she was tearing up the floor
and tearing down anyone who tore into her way

She was dragging like an anchor
full of righteousness and rancor
running down her Revolutionary road

yeah, she set me straight alright
on what was wrong and what was right
with all the wisdom of a twenty-two year-old

loosen up, look around you
you don’t have to drive yourself into the ground

you’re only young and so afraid
to see the world in all its many shades of grey

she said
“I grew up with a feeling
I’d be hanging from the ceiling
by the time I hit the age of twenty-five
but the more that I keep breathing
without looking for a reason,
the more that I am glad to be alive,
and I don’t know why.
