Revolution Songtext
von Shay D

You know when you′re repressing, facing all your pain
When you get a minute's break and start crying on the train
′Cause everything that's happened just flashes in a minute
And you recognise your grief but cannot picture yourself in it
It's a given, keep on living
Time ain′t waiting up for you

I gotta keep it moving and seem cold-hearted
And soon all the situations blur and the incidents just fade
Wipe your eyes, get off your station as if nothing′s even changed
In the morning, have you woken up mourning

People still alive but you've been forced to ignore them
How people were so tight with you, yeah loving you was nice
But loving me hard back like that clearly wasn′t right
How people claim your friendship and start chatting so much shit
And you can't believe they carry so much venom deep within
Heads you′ve let into your home and stood next to you at funerals
Friends that said you're ugly when you′re looking fucking beautiful


Life's a balance so they tell us 'keep it perfect′
Weighed down by the pressure so I′m sorry it's not working
Tryna give thanks and pray you′re feeling blessed
At exactly the same time that you're contemplating death
Telling everyone that it′ll be alright

When you know good and well that's not reality inside
All these campaigns for your mind looking after mental health
But your story′s just another amongst everybody else

The revolution shall be televised
The revolution shall be digital
Is the solution in our minds?
Because I wanna feel it in the physical
I said the revolution shall be televised
The revolution shall be digital
Show me
Is the solution in our minds?
Tell me
I wanna feel it in the physical


Nothing is original and nothing's sounding right
And you cannot justify spending more time on the mic
Narcissistic, egotistic, asking everyone to listen
But is it even art if it doesn't make a difference?
Can′t be so approachable, selective for your screen
It′s all deception, disconnected and nothing's what it seems
What you see, what you believe, they all trying to impress
Show their level of success but they′re all fucking depressed

Past life, you did things you shouldn't have
Last night, remembered things you could′ve had
Harsh times, seen with dark eyes
It's a far cry, our hearts die
To balance all the good and bad
They said ′nah, you won't get far'
Now you lean back and you look up to the stars
And you look up to the stars

And you look up to the stars

The revolution shall be televised
The revolution shall be digital
Is the solution in our minds?
Because I wanna feel it in the physical
I said the revolution shall be televised
The revolution shall be digital
Show me
Is the solution in our minds?
Tell me
I wanna feel it in the physical

I said the revolution shall be televised
The revolution shall be digital
Show me
Is the solution in our minds?
Tell me
I wanna feel it in the physical
