lyrics

They said I was theirs for 8 hours a day
They said I should smile and I shouldn’t complain
They said to get used to a world that’s in pain
They laughed when I asked them if I could abstain.

They said that my body, my body’s not mine
They said that the state would take care of me fine
They sent all their tanks when I stepped out of line
They came, they left fear and destruction behind

I choose to belong to
A world that doesn’t exist yet x4

I thought I was crazy, I thought I was alone
I thought “I cannot call this system my home”
I’m from, from a place that does not yet exist
So go on ahead, write me up on your list

I searched the whole wall till I found a crack
I stuck one foot in, and left the other foot back
I’m half in and half out, living between these two places
There’s the world that we’re building and the world it erases

I choose to belong to
A world that doesn’t exist yet x4

When here breaks you, hold on to
A world that doesn’t exist yet
It’s not perfect but life’s worth it
In a world that doesn’t exist yet
When I’m there, I swear
It’s like it really exists yet

And I choose to belong to
A world that doesn’t exist yet
