I Have...

Pages turn
 My stare burns
 The conflict of logic
 The crowd stands in awe
 ♪
 Screen in a speakeasy
 A man in black
 We've addressed many times
 And call on now
 ♪
 Thought occurs
 I've been here before
 Hear his words
 I've seen him somewhere
 The vision haunts
 I know him somehow
 As I tear my mind
 I've been here before
 Never has power risen so
 As we lay our bodies to the butcher called
 Patriotism
 Another shot heard round the world
 But this time, literally
 As I fall slain by faith
 I can almost hear liberty say
 I have loved just this once
 But have lived and died many times
 History books
 We were so young
 We were so strong
 That's what they taught us
 ♪
 Baring in mind
 It's only a book
 I close it and walk out
 Wide eyes and all
 ♪
 Think out loud
