They Chose the Bombs (Remix)

Epic dark outlaw country and experimental bass with male vocals; glitchy, off-kilter drums and growling reese bass in the verses, then huge anthemic synth leads and crowd-style gang vocals in the chorus, Tension builds through filtered risers and chopped vocal FX, dropping into a massive halftime bridge before the final full-speed, hands-in-the-air chorus, drum and bass

V4.5-ALL

[Verse 1] They sat in a room Thick glass Thin smiles Gold pens on the table All our futures in a file Two doors in front of them One light One ash One full of open arms One built to burn it all to trash [Pre-Chorus] It could've been gardens Oceans Open skies They looked at our children And chose the fire in their eyes [Chorus] They were offered peace Love Happiness for all But they chose the bombs Chose the fall Signed our names in smoke and dust Turned our hopes into rust We were screaming “life Life Life for everyone” They loaded the fear Pulled the gun In a world that could be healing when the morning comes They chose pain They chose the bombs [Verse 2] We march in the sirens Paper signs in the rain They smile for the cameras Then sell the world for gain Promises in bright ink Fade fast Run thin They toast to the carnage While we choke on what they spin [Pre-Chorus] It could've been music pouring out of every door They saw all that color And still they only asked for war [Chorus] They were offered peace Love Happiness for all But they chose the bombs Chose the fall Signed our names in smoke and dust Turned our hopes into rust We were screaming “life Life Life for everyone” They loaded the fear Pulled the gun In a world that could be healing when the morning comes They chose pain They chose the bombs [Bridge] But we are the millions (hey!) We are the crowd Hearts like thunder Rising loud If they choose shadows We choose the sun If they choose the ending We are not done We are not done (woah) [Chorus] They were offered peace Love Happiness for all But they chose the bombs Chose the fall Signed our names in smoke and dust Turned our hopes into rust We are screaming “life Life Life for everyone” We’re tearing their scripts We’re not done In a world that still can heal when the morning comes We choose love Not their bombs
