Revolution - Van William, First Aid Kit

Lost my valentine

You could never keep my meaning straight

And I won’t wait in line

For you to give me any time of day

I want a revolution

You want a short solution

We never could see eye to eye

You wanted retribution

I came to the same conclusion

It’s a story as old as time

I heard you crying in the other room

Tried to test the ice

But I could hear it cracking underneath

There’s no compromise

If both of us are aching to be free

I want a revolution

You want a short solution

We never could see eye to eye

You wanted retribution

I came to the same conclusion

It’s a story as old as time

I heard you crying in the other room

It took a lifetime

For us to see that it’s too late

We’re a broken stake

And after all of this

We keep ignoring the signs

The waters run dry

I want a revolution

You want a short solution

We never could see eye to eye

You wanted retribution

I came to the same conclusion

It’s a story as old as time

I heard you crying in the other room

I want a revolution

I want a revolution
