[G]
[A] I'm [Em] not going to lie, I'm not going to lie.
I'm not going to lie.
[A] The sun is on the vision floor
We can meet trans lads once again
Meet couple worth of more
Find crazy blinders, make a page
Of [Am] just living lives on books we've read
Where the tears of days gone by
When people smiled, the screenplay called
The message [A] for the ages
And those who fear will fade [Am] and die
And those who laugh will soon be gone
And those who don't will always feel the same

[A] trans lads once [E] [Am] again
All [A] the men who speak of victory
They lie upon their stolen life
They drive [E] by night and act as if they're moving
On Earth music, to step inside
And play the [A] part where the battle points
Is smooth and cold and power pains

no more involved dancing
And if I lose this game, I will pay it back
And if I lose it, I will surely fall
And if I lose it, I will always dance
Against the thread of war
And those who know the war will feel the dance against the thread of war
