This Election is a Sham

but love me anyway

I'm part of the revolution
fools and lovers
combining hearts and wishful thinking
pushing past the dead results
We are power united
sick of hanging chads
and dying Manchurian candidates

We are together fighting
the only world we've ever known
fighting conformity
fighting carelessness
We must be careful
don't meet me
at the coffee shop
it's under heavy surveillance
the park is a better place

The election is a sham
We've decided, predecided
our destinies
We are shackled to gold plate and fake promises
but we will the change
maybe we will see it

Revolution isn't inevitable
We must be careful
but love may be inevitable
so on we revolt.
