Put down your guns and retreat I'm feeling left behind on my American street All the time, if you say it, we can leave All in time, and get out to see the world All around and the faces everywhere follow the sound of the silence that has come. Put your hands in the air Surrender the grip of the hate that's beating all around your heads All the time, if you say it, we can leave All in time, and get out to see the world All around and the faces everywhere follow the sound of the silence that has come. I've had a revelation of sorts, a backwards revolution we are All in line, if you want it, we can leave March in time, and get out to see the world All around and the people everywhere follow the sound of the silence that has come.
