[Verse 1] They draw the line Then split the crowd Say pick a side Say it out loud Need just fifty-one To take the room So they sell you fear And they sell it soon [Pre-Chorus] Point at the other door Say it’s coming for your home Point at the other hand Till you vote alone [Chorus] Fifty-one wins it all Forty-nine takes the fall Fifty-one, fifty-one Make you scared of everyone Fifty-one, tell me why We keep choosing “us” and “I” Fifty-one, fifty-one And the country comes undone [Verse 2] Now every neighbor’s strange Every face a sign Every small complaint Turns into a fight They call it safety They call it truth But the louder they shout The less we move [Pre-Chorus] Point at the other door Say it’s coming for your home Point at the other hand Till you vote alone [Chorus] Fifty-one wins it all Forty-nine takes the fall Fifty-one, fifty-one Make you scared of everyone Fifty-one, tell me why We keep choosing “us” and “I” Fifty-one, fifty-one And the country comes undone [Bridge] What if the map was wrong? What if the room was wide? What if they needed us Less divided? What if “almost everyone” Was still enough to lead? What if they stopped selling war To meet a need? [Final Chorus] Fifty-one wins it all Forty-nine takes the fall Fifty-one, fifty-one Make you scared of everyone Fifty-one, tell me why We keep choosing “us” and “I” Fifty-one, fifty-one And the country comes undone
