#1: A Change Is Gonna Come by Sam Cooke:Then I go to my brother
And I say, "Brother, help me please"
But he winds up knockin' me
Back down on my knees
Oh there been times that I thought I couldn't last for long
But now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
We'll lie in the back of black cars with the windows rolled up
Joining the procession of emptiness
The stage is set to rip the wings from the butterfly
Weare the ones who kept quiet
And always did what we were told
But we've been sweating while you slept so calm
In the safety of your home
We've been pulling out the nails that hold up
Everything you've known
And I say, "Brother, help me please"
But he winds up knockin' me
Back down on my knees
Oh there been times that I thought I couldn't last for long
But now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will
#2: M. Shepard by Thursday: When the curtain falls and you're caught on the other side
Just trying to keep up the actWe'll lie in the back of black cars with the windows rolled up
Joining the procession of emptiness
The stage is set to rip the wings from the butterfly
#3: Prayer Of The Refugee by Rise Against: We are the angry and the desperate
The hungry, and the coldWeare the ones who kept quiet
And always did what we were told
But we've been sweating while you slept so calm
In the safety of your home
We've been pulling out the nails that hold up
Everything you've known
