Interrupters, The - The 11th Hour Lyrics

Hey little sister do you know what time it was
When you finally seen all your broken dreams
Come crashing down your door

I said they demand an answer and they demand it quick
Or the questions fade and the wasted days
Come crawling back for more

And I said
Do you know where the power lies? and who pulls the strings?
Do you know where the power lies? I said it starts and ends with you

The face of isolation
Well that's one you recognize
When you can't get straight
It's a lonely place and
It's one you do despise

I said boredom is for sale now
And helplessness you feel
It's a wounded dove and the hawks are above
Blood splattered on a reel to reel

And I said
Do you know where the power lies? and who pulls the strings?
Do you know where the power lies? I said it starts and ends with you
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!

I was almost over my world was almost gone
And in a sudden rush I could almost touch
The things that I'd done wrong
My jungle's made of concrete
And through silence I could feel
My aim is true I will walk on through
These mountains made of steel

And I said
Do you know where the power lies? and who pulls the strings?
Do you know where the power lies? I said it starts and ends with you
I said it starts and ends with you
I said it starts and ends with you!
With you!
