Protest Song

[00:00.78] One night after the show a woman came backstage
[00:10.50] Burst through the door crying, said we need to do something
[00:20.19] I nodded and felt helpless like I often do
[00:30.69] How do I put in words the hell we just went through?
[00:41.32] I am not a protest song
[00:43.74] Don't represent anyone
[00:46.59] I don't even know myself
[00:51.55] Saviour with a solution
[00:53.84] I'll give you my opinion
[00:56.90] Even though you never asked
[01:03.49] On the drive home that night I looked into my heart
[01:11.82] What do I care about, what are the things I love?
[01:21.58] The clouds lay low breathing the moon into the sky
[01:43.56] What use is a protest song?
[01:45.42] Nobody wants to be wrong
[01:48.01] People die for an idea
[01:53.02] Saviour with a solution
[01:55.99] Prophecy of opinion
[01:58.47] Truth is just a point of view
[02:04.85] Most people are not here and they're not here to know
[02:13.75] Spend their lives searching for someone they can go home
[02:23.81] Moving to places, changing jobs, and having kids
[02:34.36] Nobody never known a self they've never met
[02:44.60] What use is a protest song?
[02:48.18] Nobody wants to be wrong
[02:50.56] People die for an idea
[02:55.19] Saviour with a solution
[02:57.35] Prophecy of opinion
[03:00.39] Truth is just a point of view
[03:27.03] What use is a protest song
[03:29.25] If not to feel less alone?
[03:31.66] Hold my hand and pull me up
[03:36.71] Hope is just a discipline
[03:39.15] Every day I start again
[03:42.06] With my broken heart open
[03:46.93] What use is a protest song
[03:49.69] If not to feel less alone?
[03:52.64] Hold my hand and pull me up
[03:57.50] Hope is just a discipline
[03:59.92] Every day I start again
[04:02.74] With my broken heart open
[04:08.28] What use is a protest song
[04:10.05] If not to feel less alone?
[04:12.74] Hold my hand and pull me up
[04:17.84] Hope is just a discipline
[04:20.78] Every day I start again
[04:23.25] With my broken heart open
[04:26.35]
