Descant lyrics

I won't change the world with a song
perhaps it's futile to comment
on a revolution somewhere else

I won't change the world with these words
but it's just like me
to observe the dissolution somewhere

The war of locked minds
has subsided to these very different times
with the burning conflicts smothered
who will throw in a match from behind, yeah

I won't change the sway of politics
but if I could
I just might pick a revolution somewhere else
won't change the sway of govemment
the choice was made
and lives were spent on dissolution somewhere

Prepare and defend
as history storms in once again
whether we want it or not
a change is what we've got
it's what we've got, yeah
