Resistance●
●Muse Lyrics

Is our secret safe tonight?
Are we sure that nobody knows about our secret tonight?

And are we out of sight?
Are we away from people's view?

Or will our world come tumbling down?
Is there a possibility that everything will crumble and we will be exposed?

Will they find our hiding place?
Is it possible for others to find out where we're hiding?

Is this our last embrace?
Is this our final hug before we part ways?

Or will the walls start caving in?
Is there a possibility that everything around us will start to collapse?

(It could be wrong, could be wrong) But it should've been right
There's doubt that what they're doing is morally correct, but it felt like the right thing to do.

(It could be wrong, could be wrong) Let our hearts ignite
Their passion for each other is strong, even though it might not be socially acceptable.

(It could be wrong, could be wrong) Are we digging a hole?
Are they doing something that could lead to trouble or negative outcomes in the future?

(It could be wrong, could be wrong) This is outta control
Their situation is getting out of hand, and they feel like they're losing control.

(It could be wrong, could be wrong) It could never last
They know that what they have might not be sustainable for long.

(It could be wrong, could be wrong) Must erase it fast
They need to get rid of any evidence that could expose their secret, quickly.

But it could've been right
Despite the uncertainty of their situation, they still believe that what they have is genuine and real.

Love is our resistance
Their love is what gives them the strength to keep going, even when things are tough.

They keep us apart and they won't stop breaking us down
There are outside factors trying to keep them from being together, and it's taking a toll on them.

And hold me, our lips must always be sealed
They need to be careful and not let their feelings show, especially in public.

If we live our life in fear
If they constantly worry about what others will think, they won't be able to truly live their lives.

I'll wait a thousand years
Their love is so strong that they are willing to wait a lifetime, if necessary, in order to be together again.

Just to see you smile again
The mere thought of seeing their loved one happy again makes all the waiting worthwhile.

Quell your prayers for love and peace
They need to keep their wants and desires for a peaceful life with their loved one to themselves, in order to avoid detection

You'll wake the thought police
Someone might be listening, and they don't want to reveal their secret

We can hide the truth inside
They can keep their secret buried inside, hidden from everyone.

The night has reached its end
Their time together is almost up.

We can't pretend
They can't keep up the facade that everything is okay.

We must run
They have to leave the situation and escape from anyone who could expose them.

Take us away from here
They need to be taken away from this place where they can't be together safely.

Protect us from further harm
They need to be protected from any danger that could arise as a result of their relationship.

Resistance!
They are fighting against the forces that are trying to keep them apart.
