The Jealous Sound - Change You Lyrics

At first i caught the wave
Looking for something genuine
Had this feeling but i fought it
You're damn right i'm choosing sides

Like some tourist or a slave
And their eyes were dead like mine
Caught somewhere in between
Lost in the great divide

And i replayed this touching scene
As i lied sick in compromise
We all know what they bring
We all know they decide

And they want to change you
And they want to change you
And they want to turn your world around
And they want to change you

But sometimes the bravest thing
Is just to lay down your arms and sing
Can't do this on my own
I can't do this on my own

They curse as their collar dripped
But the greatest reward has the greatest of risks
But you already know, but you already know this

At first we just began
We had peace like chamberlain [?]
But the marching orders came
Yeah the marching orders in

And their numbers stretched for days
I tried in vain but i couldn't swim
We all know what this means
We watched it all begin

And they want to change you
And they want to change you
And they want to turn your world around
And they want to change you

And they'll try to take you
And they wanna break your heart
They want to tear your world apart
And they want to change you

And then your eyes rolled back
I felt the battle shift within
Down this lonely path
Down this lonely path again

Honey you hold me close
It's getting late, the lights are dim
Consumed by so much wrath
Down this path of mortal sin

So honey you'll hold me back
You'll hold me back again
