David Cook - Firing Squad [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
This is our manifesto
We’ve given all the best to you
Like it was the least that we could ever do
We’re soaked in gasoline while
You watched as everything just burned
Letting your lighter do the dirty work

You better hold your ground
The end is starting now
So load your gun
A war is coming

[Chorus 1]
We are all against the wall
Won’t be the ones that time forgot
If it’s our fate, we’re not afraid
Oh, we can face your firing squad

[Verse 2]
This is our revolution
Too late for absolution now
Nothing could ever put this fire out
The calm before crescendo
The quiet night before the storm
Do you remember what you’re fighting for?

[Chorus 1]
We are all against the wall
Won’t be the ones that time forgot
If it’s our fate, we’re not afraid
Oh, we can face your firing squad

[Bridge]
You’ve covered our eyes in blindfolds
But light always finds its way back in
So go on and raise you rifles
And fire, fire, fire
(Do you remember what you're fighting for?)

[Chorus 2]
We are all against the wall
Won’t be the ones that time forgot
We’ll wear the stars
Like battle scars
So give us everything you got
If it’s our fate, we’re not afraid
Oh, we can face your firing squad
