Only Us - Thrice

I see through your eyes

You breathe with my lungs

I strain with your ear to make out

The words your mother sung

I bless with your hand (Bless with your hand)

You pray on my knees (Pray on my knees)

It’s my blood in your veins

And your heart is beating in me

Finally when will it be enough

To find there’s no them

There is only us

There’s only us

I strike with your fist

You shoot with my gun

We spit in your face with my mouth

And curse me with your tongue

We cast us aside (Cast us aside)

We silence our plea (Silence our plea)

But the system that terrifies you

Should terrify me

Finally when will it be enough

To find there’s no them

There is only us

Finally when will it be enough

To find there’s no them

There is only us

There’s only us

We burn at our stakes

We die by our swords

We choke in our trenches

We drown in our wars

We’re locked in our chains

Though we long to be free

We keep building walls

Till it’s so hard to see

We are one with everything

We are one

But it’s so hard to see

Finally when will it be enough

To find there’s no them

There is only us

Finally when will it be enough

To find there’s no them

There is only us

There’s only us
