You Can Kill the Protester, but You Can't Kill the Protest

[Verse 1]

You can spoon my eyes out

But I can still see through you

Slice my ears from my head

But you can't shut out the sounds of truth

Lop off each hand at the wrist

So I can't raise my fist

[Chorus]

You can kill the protestor (Can kill)

You can't kill the protest

You can murder the rebel (Murder)

You can't murder the rebellion

[Verse 2]

Sawed my feet at the ankles

But I wasn't gonna run (I wasn't gonna run)

So you grabbed my face

And sliced off my tongue

Lop off each hand at the wrist

So I can't raise my fist

[Chorus]

You can kill the protestor (Can kill)

You can't kill the protest

You can murder the rebel (Murder)

You can't murder the rebellion (No)

[Bridge]

Lying still now (No)

No way to speak (No)

And there's nothing to fear

There's nothing to fear (No)

Lying still now (No)

No way to speak (No)

There's nothing to fear

No, nothing to fear

Because bullets can't silence ideas

[Chorus]

You can kill the protestor (Can kill)

You can't kill the protest

You can murder the rebel (Murder)

You can't murder the rebellion

The rebellion

The rebellion

No
