Lyrics:
Skies went gray, as we walked that day It's so often overcast Heard the thunder, knew the lightning was close The feeling continued to grow I didn't know (x2) Rain came down, and you could hear the sound Footsteps shaking the streets Floods washed out, nearly swept us away The people started to crowd We overflowed (x2) Flash of lightning ripped across the sky Lit your dark, brown eyes I could tell from the look of things you were scared to die But everybody, everybody knows: they can't take your soul They can't take your soul [hook] Fire (x4) burning in the streets Fire (x4) burning inside of me I see you there in that Athens square With your fist clenched tight and your jet-black hair You were screaming out, "Exarchaeia" when the cavalry started to roll They never showed (x2) [hook] Everyone knows, nobody cares You just stare at the screens in disbelief Everyone's aching, nobody shows In the streets, you'll get no relief There are overlords, there are underlings Distracted by your shiny things People's desire, more things to acquire All your money is burning in a pyre [hook] The smoke cleared out, but something hung in the air The tanks breached the walls What was left ringing in our ears, was a bell with a neverending toll Everyone knows, everybody knows [hook x2]
