Four Days More

Four days more til we march upon this city
You have four more days to turn this train around
Four days more til me knock upon your armored doors
Four days more til we tread on to your hallowed ground
We’ve been watching for too long now
We’ve been waiting for the change
We’ve been trusting in your heavy hand
And giving you the stage
There were many times we doubted
There were many times we cried
There were many times we asked
If you were really on our side
Three days more...
And while the answers never came
And while the days drew dark and cold
While we sank even further
Towards what we feared the most
We let you keep on dancing
We let you keep it all
We let you keep our constitution hanging on your wall
Two days more...
We won’t come bearing weapons
We won’t break down the walls
But within your sacred houses
You will hear our battle calls
We will stand and shout our meaning
We will sing all through the night
We will wait outside your fences
Til you’re gone and out of sight
One day more...
