Hearts Like Ours Lyrics

Into the cold, we were thrown

Young and blind

Eyes cast towards the sky

They kicked through the walls with fear in their eyes

Searching for flames, but finding only light

Black boots

The floors were shaking

Cast out

Our hearts were breaking

But that's the chance we're taking

Living in a world of our own making

They try to make us scatter

Try to push us away

As they raise up their barriers, we'll find another way

Can't bleach the color

No, you can't silence the sound

As long as we still are breathing, we'll share this joy that we have found

We're gonna dance together

Hold each other closely, long into the night

Don't do what they say

They wanna take it away

We've got to do what we feel's right

We're gonna live together

Try and find that better life

Can't hear what they say with their voices of hate

Just take my hand and walk me towards the light

We don't know where we'll go or how we'll rise above

We just feel we have the right to live as we like and love who we love

Walking in time on common ground

The only thing we worship is the color and sound

Run through the woods like wolves on the prowl

Hunting for space and living by the hour

You never really lose a friend, they just change their space

So another shining heart may come and take their place

Let's raise our banners

Let's sound off our horns

Our castle is rebuilt and our kingdom is reborn

We're gonna stay together

Strong enough to overcome the pain and the strife

If your heart can reach mine, I will be with you all the days of your life

We're gonna dance together

Never to tire

Never to break

We've got nothing to lose

Nothing to win

You get what you give when you need what you take

I remember your face when we were new

I wanna see it again

When we promised each other we'd be together 'till the end

They still build us our boxes so we'll all play the same

While they tear down our houses and fight wars in our names

Nothing always changes and time will sweep us away

I'll forget the most who leave but cherish those that would stay

Stay

Stay

We're gonna live forever

Hearts like ours are blessed with eternal youth

Don't do what they say

They wanna steal it away

This light inside, no one can take

Joyful hearts are a form of resistance

Can't buy it

Can't beat it if you don't believe

It's us in the past

It's us in the future

It's us together

It's all that we need

Need

Need

It's all that we need
