[Verse 1]

The protest rests between the graves

The happy songs, the sad, sad slaves

5 to 9 or 9 to 5

The dangers of the safe, safe live

I'm sick of the routine

We work to exist, we exist for the working

Stuck in our day dreams

The question remains:

What the fuck are we doing here?

[Pre-Chorus]

Free as the sea, heavy as the shore

We all have enough, but always want more

The shit that I own makes me someone I'm not

Give me a second to give up all that I've got

[Chorus]

Take me back home

The protest is over

Take me back home

The cameras remain

[Verse 2]

Deep inside our daily trot

We love the things we're so sick of

We barely talk, we barely speak

We're old enough, accept defeat

I will not belive

That I'm half as content, as the smile on my face seems

Stuck in my daydreams

The question remains, what the fuck am I doing here?

[Pre-Chorus]

Free as the sea, heavy as the shore

We all have enough, but always want more

The shit that I own makes me someone I'm not

Give me a second to give up all that I've got

[Chorus]

Take me back home

The protest is over

Take me back home

The cameras remain

Take me back home

We sell our freedom day by day

Take me back home

Our dreams are imprisoned, we're numbered by names

[Bridge]

And one day you'll realize, you can't buy freedom

[Pre-Chorus]

Free as the sea, heavy as the shore

We all have enough, but always want more

The shit that I own makes me someone I'm not

Give me a second to give up all that I've got

[Chorus]

Take me back home

The protest is over

Take me back home

The cameras remain
