We Are the Ones

Let's have a conversation
Let's contemplate our fate
Let's swear at politicians
Let's slate the human race

Let's argue about religion
Let's watch each other smile
Let's let our common vision
Keep us happy for a while

We spend so little time nowadays thinking good things
Who will we blame when the world falls apart?
I hope it's not me

Let's fall in love on busses
Let's watch a local band
Let's be nice to one another
Let's get old and still hold hands

Let's swear at politicians
Let's watch each other smile
Let's let our common vision
Keep us happy for a while

We spend so little time nowadays thinking good things
Who will we blame when the world falls apart?

Now we go to sleep reciting secrets that we keep
So the ones who have entrusted us can set their minds at ease
And we spend our days being the men we said we'd be
So the world won't feel so empty of respect and honesty
We are the ones
(We are the ones)

We spend so little time nowadays thinking good things
Who will we blame when the world falls apart?

Now we go to sleep reciting secrets that we keep
So the ones who have entrusted us can set their minds at ease
And we spend our days being the men we said we'd be
So the world won't feel so empty of respect and honesty
We are the ones
(We are the ones)
And change, it starts with us
We are the ones
(We are the ones)
The kind of people you can trust
We are the ones
(We are the ones)
And in a world that's full of rust, we've kept our shine

We are the ones
(We are the ones)
We are the ones
(We are the ones)
We are the ones
(We are the ones)
We are the ones
(We are the ones)

We are the ones
(We are the ones)
We are the ones
(We are the ones)
We are the ones
(We are the ones)
We are the ones
(We are the ones)

We are the ones
(We are the ones)
We are the ones
(We are the ones)
We are the ones
(We are the ones)
We are the ones
(We are the ones)

We are the ones
(We are the ones)
And in a world that's full of rust, we've kept our shine
