Lyrics

Strike

[Intro]

All out! Take the streets!

All out! Fight!

All out! Organise!

All out! Strike!

All out! Take the streets!

All out! Fight!

All out! Organise!

All out! Strike!

[Pre-Chorus]

Listen

Engage

Take care

Make space

[Chorus]

Strike down! Reflect!

Strike down! Recognise!

Strike down! Debate!

Strike down! Amplify!

[Verse 1]

The future is dark

Which is all it can be

The strangest of twists

Built our history

Let's defend our gains

Create something more

And disrupt the logic

That drives men to war

[Pre-Chorus]

Listen

Engage

Take care

Make space

[Chorus]

Strike down! Reflect!

Strike down! Recognize!

Strike down! Debate!

Strike down! Amplify!

[Post-Chorus]

All out! Take the streets!

All out! Fight!

All out! Organise!

All out! Strike!

All out! Take the streets!

All out! Fight!

All out! Organise!

All out! Strike!

[Verse 2]

Are you waiting to storm the winter palace [?]

Pictured yourself on the front page

Do you want a fucking monument

Or are you here to make change?

[Verse 3]

The future is dark

Which is all it can be

The choices we have

Aren't so binary

Can we quit curating

Individual lives

And focus on fixing

Constructed divides?

[Outro]

Resist distraction!

[?] direction

Fix the fractures

All out! All out! Everything! Now!

[Instrumental Outro]
