Lyrics

The People

[Verse 1]

Love likes to float, but it drops like a stone in my heart

Cause as I watch you go, I'm taken back to the start

[Chorus]

We are the people, we watch as things go

We are the people, we don't take things slow

(But I won't)

(But I won't)

[Verse 2]

Love likes to light, but it burns like a flame in my heart

Cause as I watch this go, we're just ashes lying in the dark

[Chorus]

We are the people, we watch as things go

We are the people, we don't take things slow

(But I won't)

(But I won't)

(But I won't)

[Bridge]

We lost the people, that watched us go (but I won't)

We are the people, that watch things go (but I won't)

We lost the people, that watched us go (but I won't)

We are the people, that watch things go

We lost the people

[Chorus]

We are the people, we watch as things go

We are the people, we don't take things slow
