Taking Charge Songtext
Pass me down that bottle
My one, and only true friend
Let's drink this night away
And, while we do, let's pretend
That everything's alright
There's no sorrow to be found
In this world, and in our hearts
And I'll try to get it all down

Liars, cheats, and hypocrites
Who say they're on your side
But have a list of terms, as well
By which you must abide
Or they'll sell you out, and spread around
A hundred thousand lies
While besmerging reputations
Through the hatred in their eyes

All the idiots in authority
Who take one side of the gun
And when they pull the hammer down
They all expect you to run
Or they'll make you the laughingstock
Within the private, and public eye
Then they'll pull back the trigger
And watch you suffer, until you die

We could oust them all from power
We could prescribe their own medicine
And multiply it all by two
Until it's sunshine, and rainbows
Among the birds and the flowers
In a place we call pretend
Where it's only you, and I
Taking charge, instead

Liars, cheats, and hypocrites
Who say they're on your side
But have a list of terms, as well
By which you must abide
Or they'll sell you out, and spread around
A hundred thousand lies
While besmerging reputations
Through the hatred in their eyes

Repeat chorus x3 and fade
