Lyrics

I've been thinking that it's time to declare

I've been contemplating that it's the moment to officially announce

I've been thinking that it's time to declare

I've been considering that it's the time to officially announce

From rooftops and alleyways

From various locations such as rooftops and narrow streets

Declare war on misery

To openly engage in a battle against unhappiness and suffering


I've been thinking that it's time to declare

I've been contemplating that it's the moment to officially announce

I've been thinking that it's plain to see everywhere

I've been considering that it's evidently visible everywhere

From the rooftops and alleyways

From the rooftops and narrow streets

There's war on misery to declare

There's a significant battle against unhappiness and suffering to be declared


May we all have mercy, have mercy on our souls

May all of us show compassion and kindness, have compassion for our souls

May we all have mercy, protection from the undertaker's toll

May all of us show compassion, protection from the grim reaper's final toll

Did we save those in need

Did we assist those who required help

From the danger winds that blow?

From the hazardous forces that threaten?


Gotta keep on movin', can't let any grass grow under your feet

Need to continue progressing, not allowing any stagnation or idleness

Gotta keep on movin', can't let any grass grow under your feet

-

Been on the wander

Have been exploring extensively

For new ideas and beliefs

In search of fresh concepts and convictions


I've been thinking that it's time to declare

I've been contemplating that it's the moment to officially announce

I've been thinking that it's time to declare

I've been considering that it's the time to officially announce

From the rooftops and alleyways

From various locations such as rooftops and narrow streets

Declare war on misery

To openly engage in a battle against unhappiness and suffering
