lyrics

EMMA SAYS

Round and round and round we go
Time to stand up, but we don’t.
Normalized and we all go numb
Brace for more but save the guns.

ch Emma says listen up, this is the new age
Your time is up, we’re not goin’ away.

Save your empty thoughts and prayers
You say it’s too soon, but you don’t care.
I saw my friends get blown away
You sold your soul to the NRA.

ch. Emma says listen up, this is the new age
Your time is up, we’re not goin’ away.

Call it fake, then say we’re hired
No background check required
I will speak my truth to power
I will not tire, I will not cower

Look in my eyes, they’re alive and wild
My heart is on fire.
Your old eyes are dead like a doll’s
It's always someone else’s fault.

ch. Emma says, time’s up, this is the new age
We’ve had enough, we’re not going away
We’ve had enough, we’re not going away
We’ve had enough, we’re not going away.
