Warrior Lyrics


My hands are tied but my eyes are open
This modern denial has me broken
Nothing mystical, no hullabaloo
Just chemicals and no one looking down on you
What am I thinking
Oh, if you're so sure it's rational
While the world's shrinking
But that don't make it logical
What am I thinking
If you say I'm just an animal
I feel like I'm sinking
You can't explain away the way I feel
[Chorus]You're just crushing me down, crushing me down, crushing me down
They tell you "Trust your head, be like men"
But never feel like you're good enough
You're just pushing me down, pushing me down, pushing me down
They wanna take our light, make us fight
But never cry for the ones you love

Cry for the ones you love
I'll be your warrior, your warrior
Cry for the ones you love
I'll be your warrior, your warrior, warrior
You're taking over and I'm feeling small
When I was a child I knew it all
Nothing magical, no hologram behind the door
Just a chain reaction but I know I'm made for more
What am I thinking
If you're so sure it's rational
While the world's shrinking
Ooh, but that don't make it logical
What am I thinking
If you say I'm just an animal
I feel like I'm sinking
You can't explain away the way I feel
[Chorus]And you're just pushing me down, pushing me down, pushing me down
They tell you "Trust your head, be like men"
But never feel like you're good enough
You're just crushing me down, crushing me down, crushing me down
They wanna take our light, make us fight
But never cry for the ones you love
[Chorus]And you're just pushing me down, pushing me down, pushing me down
You wanna change the world but your girls
Will be seen and not be heard
And you're just pushing me down, pushing me down, pushing me down
They wanna take our light, make us fight
But never cry for the ones you love
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Cry for the ones you love
[Instrumental][Chorus]You're just crushing me down, crushing me down, crushing me down
They tell you "Trust your head, trust your head"
And you're just pushing me down, pushing me down, pushing me down
They wanna take our light, take our light
But never cry for the ones you love
[Chorus]And you're just crushing me down, crushing me down, crushing me down
You wanna change the world but your girls
Will be seen and not be heard
And you're just pushing me down, pushing me down, pushing me down
They wanna take our light, make us fight
But never cry for the ones you love
