Korven Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Look around at the pure insanity
Would you believe me
When I say that love is here?

Close your eyes, and face the pure humanity
Listen to me
You have nothing left to fear
Do you want to be the best, don't all of us?
This is the wild wild west, you're one of us
Grab your pitchforks and open flame
Take back what you deserve like its a fucking game
Resist the power from the top straight down
Burn this motherfucker they can't can stop us now
Load the guns with the bullets of opinion
Use your thoughts as ammunition

Close your eyes, and face the pure humanity
(Load the guns with the bullets of opinion)
Listen to me
(Use your thoughts as ammunition)
You have nothing left to fear

I hope you'll find what you're looking for
I hope you'll find what they're waiting for




I hope you'll know what you're looking for
I hope you'll find...
